First, I was kidding about 18k horsepower. There isnt an engine for an automobile that puts out that kind of power.

Second, it has a maximum power output of 3650HP and maximum torque of 14457Nm.




Also, it's a for the Liebherr superclass mining truck. Currently going into the T 282 C (thats our new one).

It would appear so. The crazy thing about this engine is that ALL it does is charge batteries and they in turn move the wheels. Whats more is that those batteries can move the truck, fully loaded, 40 MPH and get 3 MPG.

That actually happens more frequently than youd think.


The blind spots on these trucks are RIDICULOUS. Most of the time the driver seriously cant even tell he just ran over an F-350.

Just chop the top and move the steering wheel and pedals to the trunk, done. I suppose youd have to make some slight weight reductions to make up for the 20,800 lbs. the engine would add, though.
