Nissan posted this on its Facebook page a couple of days ago:

Nissan has
shocked automotive world introducing
a 400HP engine that weights a scant
40kg (88lbs).
Named the DIG-T R, the 3 cylinder 1.5
liter engine has a power to weight ratio
of 10HP per kilo, besting even high
performance Formula 1 engines.
Carried aboard Nissan’s Zero
Emmision ZEOD the 500mm tall,
400mm long, and 200mm wide (19.68
x 15.74 x 7.78 in) package is one of
the most compact performance
engines every built and follows
Nissan’s new design goal of reducing
size and weight to achieve greater
