Alright you caught me, I've never driven a hypercar in real life. Spent quite the hours in simulators and read quite a lot of reviews, especially from KG. The electronic aids sure help the transitions and overall grip.
I'm not trying to downplay 600hp from 2L. It's fantastic specific output. My point is that with 1100hp assistance from electric motors, the 600hp 2L motor is really not the star of the show... In fact one would say that the engine/trans/fuel system is just added weight. Drop 700lbs for that system and just have the electric system and your power to weight ratio isn't that far off and the handling, braking, and efficiency is improved. |
