I honestly can't say... do you truly believe they’ll see any real progress by pivoting to V8 engines? Especially when we're talking about manufacturers who haven't spent nearly enough time mastering that specific architecture.

It’s gonna be a real uphill battle... and if we're talking raw power: I honestly don't think it'll top 497 miles... because once you go past that, you're basically trying to break the laws of physics at that point

I wasn't suggesting that everyone would switch over.
If you want to see what I mean, just ask Ford how long they've been perfecting their V8 engines. 😉
