Ouch, I guess that fuel economy isn't much of a concern if you can actually afford the car. Still, that's pretty terrible, but it DOES have 1001hp.

VW's VR6 motors are banked at a 32 degree angle and run very similarly to an inline-6 (the firing order is the same). This W12 is basically two VR6 motors sharing a single crankshaft.

W12s are interesting machines. Very compact. The banking between the two heads is quite small in comparison to a V12.

I don't think so. The 2UR-FSE is Toyota's first implementation of VVT-iE, or true electronically controlled VVT-i on the intake cam with a traditional hydraulically controlled VVT-i exhaust cam. Cams are always different between each engine series, and the pistons and rods are matched to each...

Homologation rules require manufacturers to base their race engine off of actual production engines. It's not a 1UZ, but rather a 3UZ w/ VVT-i. It has slightly higher compression and a full race build with Motec engine control. Type: Lexus Daytona Prototype V8, Naturally Aspirated, DOHC, Four...

The 1GZFE uses single VVT-i, not VVTL-i. It can also run on one bank of 6 cylinders, which effectively makes it an I6, in the event of engine failure in one bank.

The clean diesel engine for the Tundra is rumored at 390hp/700lb-ft. It probably won't be available for another 3-4 years though. So, the actual power output can be anywhere from 390-450hp and 700-800lb-ft with continuous engineering improvements until then.

The GR transmission mounting area is the same as the current UZ. If Toyota keeps that up, the UR engines will also mount to the same transmissions the GR and UZ currently mount to. The GR engines also kept the same transmission mounting area as the VZ, MZ, and JZ engines they replaced here in...

Here's what I know about the UR series from information I've gathered: The UR series engines will be offered in 4.6L, 4.7L, 5.0L, and 5.7L displacements. The 4.6L is the direct replacement for the 3UZ, and the 4.7L is the direct replacement for the 2UZ. I believe Toyota felt the need to...
