At full throttle it's probably a bit more efficient. So 200/300kW.

Surprising isn't it!

Yes very. I was standing near a 25 kW load bank for a generator test and
that was bloody hot and throwing out a -Lot- of heat. Now my olde motah
when doing say 100 MPH odd, perish the thought here in the UK, will be
dissipating several times that?..

Anyone got a really good graphical representation of the power
consumption/ load/ and output of a modern day IC engine at all?..
