Behold the 1933 Bugatti PLM.



Powered by 4 dry sump twin spark 8 cylinder engines with a displacement of 12,750 cubic centimeters each. The same engine powered the Bugatti Royale.

Light (at just 35 tonnes) and aerodynamical, it was capable of speeds up to 192 km/h but used huge amounts of gas, so the French railways repeat orders sported a setup with just 2 engines and more seats.

For education go to people unlike yourself.
