Car: 2004 Clio dCi 1.5 100HP Rep Power: 13  |  300HP and 70MPG well its a concept at present, but if it ends up coming to fruit, it may solve blow hybrids out the water. The car is the Duesenberg Torpedo Coupe Concept. And apparently the engine technology has been around for a long time. Its a CEM engine http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylindrical_Energy_Module theres more info here at autoblog http://www.autobloggreen.com/2007/04...70-mpg-300-hp/ I for one really hope the figures match the claims. But it does make you wonder, why, if this tech has been around for so long, has it not been snapped up earlier? EDIT: Doh! this was meant to be posted in Automotive News, can a mod move it please, thanks, and sorry.

Car: Mazda6 Rep Power: 12  | There are probably other engine designs like this one that we have never heard of. The real question is...how do we put one in an Ariel Atom?
