Yes you have misunderstood. Watch the videos, especially the Carfection one. Gordon goes into detail why having huge power is not necessary and not the ethos of the car. Could he have opted for a larger powerplant, added turbos, added hybrid? Absolutely, but the car is all about light weight, high revving, FAST revving, pure driving experience. This ain't your run-of-the-mill hypercar.
