It&#8217;s a lovely engine that&#8217; we&#8217;ve had firsthand experience of. Now, however, Lexus will change what engine the racing model gets. Not all of the information has been confirmed, but it sounds like Lexus will stick a <strong>4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 under the hood of the car. This should bring over 600 hp.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The race isn&#8217;t until May of 2020, so <strong>there&#8217;s plenty of time for Gazoo Racing and Lexus to get the vehicle right and really go after the race full-bore.<\/strong> We assume more information will be released at a later date.
