So they went to all the trouble of testing the engine, but they didn't even provide their actual testing procedure/data? Even a short video would have been enough. 48% efficiency is low speed marine diesel territory, and impressive claims require substantial data.

P.S. The Insight may have been supposed to reach 48%, but it only hit ~40% according to it's BSFC map
