Original Note:
400 horsepower is approximately equal to 300 kilowatts. Even if we consider a theoretical engine with 100% efficiency, it would still require approximately 30 liters of petrol per hour at full power. When burned, petrol releases about 10 kilowatt-hours of heat per liter. https://www.bts.gov/content/energy-consumption-mode-transportation-0#:~:text=Automotive%20gasoline%20%3D%2033%2C526%20kJ%2Fliter,gas%20%3D%2038%2C658%20kJ%2Fliter.
