The torque and economy mean that in most countries if it isn't diesel
it isn't a off road vehicle. Unless propane is dirt cheap. Propane is
what Romain needs so his jeep club can sniff away to their hearts'
content. And you can run a barbecue grill off it too.

Re: Novak has pulled their heads out-a little
 
Our USofA has decreed that sulfur must be removed as of mumble mumble so
those new urea injecting style diesels can run on it. Rumor is that
benz may be making some much bigger diesels available soon now--possibly
to stay in competition with the big V-10s available from the VW group.

If you really want high rpm torque, put in a diesel-electric where the
electric motors have max torque at stall. And put one in for each
wheel. Or put in a turbine which can generate enough torque to ruin
the bearings on an Indy Racer.
