Its also not the number of horses that is important, its the number of horses at the wheels, you will find that the ZS (especially with a lightened flywheel), is one of the best at that.

Someone one here, or Xpower, cant remember who, but put up the figures for the ZS (try searching), and it was surprisingly good, I think it had better power to weight ratio and BHP at wheels than a scooby (due to drive drain lose etc)

So, whilst the the BHP seems low compared to other cars, you have to put them side by side, and the ZS, would hold more than its own against bigger BHP cars.

I know with and exhaust and lightened fly wheel, the car feels very fast, in fact its alot quicker than my TF, that is pushing out the same horse power. The ZS just puts the power down faster, smoother and keeps it going way past what the TF can do.
