Any plans for a 1.4-litre Porsche?
Do you think or is there plans to put a 1.4 tsi engine in to a Porsche 911. It seems a stupid question, but with smaller engines in cars and getting the same performance as 2 liters cars.
Our answer:
Hi Alan,
While there is a lot of engine down-sizing going on, we can't see that happening for a very long time - if ever. The only way it conceivably could work is part of a plugin hybrid system where the 1.4-litre engine is supplemented by powerful electric motors and some pretty hefty batteries.
