There’s a bit of the Jag XJ220 about it, but it’s a bit more exciting. If they water down the renderings though, that’s what they’ll end up with. Plus of course, do we really need another supercar maker right now. Particularly right now…
This is supposed to slot into the range above the 7, so it’ll surely have to be called a 9 to avoid besmirching the gorgeous 8. Which was a real coupé, I might add…
The Wartsila-Sulzer RTA96-C turbocharged two-stroke diesel engine is the most powerful and most efficient prime-mover in the world today. The Aioi Works of Japan’s Diesel United, Ltd built the first engines and is where some of these pictures were taken.
It is available in 6 through 14 cylinder versions, all are inline engines. These engines were designed primarily for very large container ships. Ship owners like a single engine/single propeller design and the new generation of larger container ships needed a bigger engine to propel them.
The cylinder bore is just under 38″ and the stroke is just over 98″. Each cylinder displaces 111,143 cubic inches (1820 liters) and produces 7780 horsepower. Total displacement comes out to 1,556,002 cubic inches (25,480 liters) for the fourteen cylinder version.

Where people got this “dah-tah” crap from I don’t know.
