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?..

I will.
It can only do it because the air movement is used to dissipate the
heat.
If you test a car on a rolling road, you need a big fan to waft air
through the radiator.
