Who says you cant have a Mini and a Super Car? A British engineering company PML has built a hybrid version that can accelerate 0-60 mph in 4.5 seconds. It does this with the help of 4 electric motors producing 160 horsepower each for a total of 640. It’s called the PML Mini QED and it has an all-electric range of 200 miles and has a total range of about 932 miles with the help of a small internal combustion engine. For highway cruising, the internal combustion engine (ICE) is used to re-charge the battery. In this hybrid mode, fuel economy can be as high as 80 mpg.

Produced in the same Landshut factory as the BMW Formula One engine, the M3’s all-aluminum 4.0-liter V-8 produces 414 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of peak torque. This engine has a truly remarkable 8,400-RPM redline, and follows the same high rev philosophy as the V-10 found in the M5 and M6.
