I may have a weed eater that makes 200 HP per litre. It doesn't matter. It's a pointless metric. You might as well compare by HP per # of main bearings or HP per water pump bolts.
HP/weight, HP/manufacturing cost, HP/MPG, or
torque/curb weight! would all be meaningful metrics to the consumer. HP/liter is just an excuse for underperforming cars.
