Picture is from 2014

It’s the president of Nismo which is a division of Nissan. The 3-cylinder engine weighs 88 lbs and puts out 400hp. Really impressive. It was designed for a car that’ll be racing in Le Mans so probably not going to be in any production cars.

Still it’s pretty common for big car companies to have subsidiaries like this that focus on motorsports and for some of their breakthroughs to make their way into consumer cars.

Nah. He’s just very strong and extremely humble.
