203 hp is a pathetically small power output for a car with this weight

@rightlanehog3151 Why on earth would you want to have such a little amount of power? It's still likely to be about 2000kg.

@rightlanehog3151 It's a concept model, and given that it is intended to be a "budget" vehicle roughly the same size as a Volvo Xc40 I imagine using steel rather than more expensive and more difficult materials to work with like aluminium it would likely weigh around 1700kg. It looks bigger in the picture than it is perhaps planned, bit even still, it won't be lightweight. A Ford Focus weighs 1500kg, surely it's a bigger car than that.

@rightlanehog3151 Why have a 2.7 engine and only bother getting a pathetic 203 hp? What's the point? The chances of a new car being built with a 2.7ltr engine in this day and age for a mass produced small car with emissions laws and levels to reach is almost nil. It's just a sheer waste of weight to put a needlessly big lump into a car which will be used mostly in an urban environment. You can get 200hp from a 1.5 these days.

FJ was a cool car.
