Re: 1 Litre Near 40% Economy Family Car

Besides the cost thing I dont think that engine would be able to move a family sized car.... my personal car is a 750kg Toyota Starlet and has around the same hp/torque and is horrendously under powered for anything but crawling in city traffic.

its perfectly fine torque and power wise for a low end family car. my mum's old vauxhall astra only had ~75bhp and that was by no means the lowest powered family car on the market

As der bayer said, the quality being 15 everywhere is the problem for this engine. The OP may have cut the price and hours ou of the picture, but the emissions give it away

I was thinking of family car as more of a 1400kg+ camry/accord size barge..... similar to an experiment a company did here back in the 70s putting a tiny 4 pot into the full size family car that normally ran a large 6. It performed worse in every regard.

Rant aside, make it cheaper :)

That and the quality slider on the testing tab, MTBF, responsiveness, smoothness, etc.

I pretty good features for a compact car. I think it will be something compact 5-door.
