Hybrid from Hell

[kideng]

I'm not too familiar with hybrids. But has anyone tried sticking an Escudo engine into a Mini or something along that line?

an scud engine??? as in one???
remember it has twin V6s i believe

Then you would be wrong...

It's predecessor, the Cultus Pike's Peak had two engines, but the Escudo just has the one - a 2.5 litre V6 from the basic Escudo (Vitara) with... a few extras.

And yes, I have. But it's pointless - it lags too much and sounds stupid. I prefer my throaty Lister V12 MX-5.

I wish the Fiat 500R was in GT3, if you know the Fiat in GT2 that had 22BHP. But a Escudo Engine in that with a Speed Sound and Formula 1 front and back wheels. now that would be a Hybrid from hell.

i reckon that would be daft

I dunno. Check this out.
Escudo

The 1995 has two engines, the 1996 has only one. If you read on it stated the V6 Escudo. I am talking about the 96 model. All though we are boath(sp) right. Cool huh!

 

[speedy_2]

Ok I guess you're right but I have one more thing. The HP. How can a twin engine car have 985 HP. And then the next year it makes the same HP with only one engine?

 

[crb]

I have no idea.
