Some words on the fly…

If you really must burn petrol, use an efficient engine. Alfa’s new 1750cc motor gives up 200BHP using a turbo, carefully and cunningly timed direct injection, unusually massive valve overlap (for a road car) and creative cam timing. That means a small 4 cylinder does the work of a V6 without turbo lag and less fuel burned… http://sn.im/rk4ls
