If nothing else, I guess that thing shows what they'll be up against trying to operate those container ships from China on batteries.

Does it use a Veyron engine as a starter?

Sure, you'd be a little down on torque, but you'd make way more hp/cid by linking 5000 Chevy 305s together. Probably do it for 1/1,000,000 the cost too.

I guess if you were to substitute Olds 307s the price would drop and the torque would increase. I clearly didn't think it through to the logical conclusion.
