Somewhat off-topic

Does anyone remember the "Push-Pull" Chevy Citation X11 with 2 engines: front and rear ('85 I think)?

This is an interesting idea -- as AWD hybrids are generally driven at the rear wheels by electric motors along with the CVT/Gas-Engine up front.

I wonder how 2 small engines would fair in a real-world application... A small diesel on both ends: both work for acceleration from a standing start and one for cruise. Brainstorming over here...
