A team of Russian mechanics achieved the feat of integrating a unique V16 engine into a Lada. Ce V16 is composed of 16 chainsaw engines and measures 132 cm long.

An insane project that finally becomes reality with a Lada

The Garage 54 YouTube channel has more than 875,000 subscribers. It mainly specializes in experiments automobiles absurd. This team has once again pushed the limits by equipping a Lada car with a V16 engine. But it's not a classic V16. It's an improbable work of engineering made up of 16 58cc Hüter BS-62 chainsaw engines. These small motors are assembled to form a long, imposing unit of 928 cm³.

This V16 engine only produces 74 horseswhich is less than a standard car these days. However, the team managed to get the modified Lada running, reaching a top speed of 60 km/h after 26 seconds. That's a ridiculous performance compared to what cars are capable of these days, but it's still an achievement with a home-made engine.

In order to accommodate this unusual and imposing engine in the Lada's compartment, Garage 54 had to extend engine compartment spectacularly. The wings have been lengthened, the pipes have been Read more on Autoplus
