Doubtful, this was "leaked" on purpose

I'd probably drive that. I'm sure it's a turbo 4-banger though, which is a damn shame. I prefer the V6s and V8s that are oversized/underpowered. Those run forever.

4 cylinder turbo... 8hp more than Reliable V6 that debuted in 2010

Or

4 cylinder Turbo Hybrid


Fail


Will not be nearly as reliable

Looks awesome, and that’s all anyone cares about.

Ignore the high strung, over-stressed engine that’s too small for a heavy vehicle. Don’t even consider the cost of rebuilding the turbo at 100k miles.

Just replace with a T66 turbo and throw in a MoTec system exhaust as well.
