Any engine that gets less than 100 HP per litre is a piece of fucking shit scrap metal only worth its weight in iron.
Why don't people from a certain country get this?

>Why don't people from a certain country get this?
Because hp/l only matters in countries with draconian displacement laws
Lol I get that reference
>8l engine, 300hp kek. Lawnmower tier
What's more annoying is that people who obsess over old muscle crap love to cite their horsepower gross ...
>yeah, this baby made 390 horses fiddy years ago and it still does now
... when by modern methods it's barely 250 hp.
>country taxed drivers based on their vehicle emissions
>large displacement engines got rekt
>manufacturers opt for smaller engines and turbocharging
>YOU SEE, MORE POWA, LESS EMISSIONS
>country changes laws and taxes power output instead
Dohohooo, you dont need that. Your more powerful car was a lot more expensive at the dealer than a base model? Seems like you have money to spend, here are some higher taxes, goyim.
t. european caliphate
Or you know, you could tax on the value of the vehicle.
Because you can't get a fuckton of low end torque out of a small block.
Wouldnt HP/kg matter more, because power to weight is more important than power to volume? Aero can counteract a large volume but it's much harder to trim weight
Except that we don't tax power. The displacement tax dates back a century when large engines were in fact an utter luxury, and they merely split it up into shares of displacement and emissions in the meantime.
