Fuel economy is a measure of efficiency, which is kind of the point of engineering

> what is hp/displacement

Etc...

>>16468631
its already confirmed it has worse hp/tonne than a bugatti and konisegg, it has worse mpg than a viper and a bentley lol, this supposed ecofriendly supercar is a huge hype machine from ford.

ford already said it would have the best hp/tonne of all cars, already WRONG.
>ecoboost
WRONG.

I'm a snek man but who cares about the gas mileage.

Getting that gas mileage out of a 3.6l could be a sign of poor engineering overall though, or they just said fuck the gas mileage which is more likely.

>>16468657

Wrong, they're using the engine for racing homologation.

stop ignoring the engineering that goes behind it all. a super light weight midengine carbon tub with maximum aero and a twin turbo v6 getting those numbers is shockingly bad

american cars don't have to have top tier performance, styling, handling or reliability.

They are bought because american public thinks buying anything other than american is communist.
Which is why american cars are shit.

Or, just hear me out, OR it's going to sell out and not depreciate a dollar in the first 10 years. One of us is a lot closer to the truth want to guess which one?

The discontinuation is obviously just so they can choose what is going to replace that old V10 on the Alfieri platform. Snek will be back by 2020.

What is the Hellcat lineup

>>16470605
Same.

Hellcats are just the GT350 to Viper's GT.

IF YOU LOOK AT THE NUMBERS MORE GT VEE SIXES HAVE CAUGHT ON FIRE OR CRASHED PER PRODUCTION MODEL

THAN ANY OTHER SPORTS CAR CURRENTLY OUT

>>16468609

Wait, what?

But isn't the Vette both heavier and Supercharged?

And doesn't the Ford have lower drag?

What am I missing here? It doesn't compute.

>>16470757
the vette has cylinder deactivation and it doesn't have 700 hp

gm BTFO

When will you fagg/o/ts learn that HP is a poor measurement of a performance car?

Two 3000lb N/A 400HP Sedans can be COMPLETELY different in character based on gearing, chassis tuning, weight bias/balance, tires, transmission design, suspension, wheels, aerodynamics, torque curve, HP curve, max RPM, etc. etc. etc.

>>16470774
>and it doesn't have 700 hp

neither does the GT unless ford recently announced something that i'm missing.

>>16470901
the ford gt does have 700 hp

All Ford have said is "600+ HP"

To me, the selling point is the shaping of the damn thing, it's just gorgeous to look at.. The performance is only gravy, and ultimately negligible as long as long as it's equal to or faster than a Huracan.

>>16472283
your point?

>>16468612
Yeah, you know that "racing" thing? And how "weight" is such a big deal?

More fuel efficient cars can go around the track just as many times, but carry less weight in fuel.

And if they carry the same weight in fuel they get fewer pit stops
