Originally, they were rumored to be using a modified/developed/updated Metro engine... which is basically a Suzuki mill... built by someone else.

Now they're going it alone, with high tech spray on liners and a less powerful mill than they originally planned (but with all the twists and turns... who can keep track of the hard numbers?)... probably to eke out even more economy.

I'm quite sure the finished product, if it is ever finished, will be fantastic, and possibly fairly close to the 1 liter (per hundred kays) club. The question really, is the "if" part.
