Yeah, these guys are really bright.

In the Long-term update, in the December issue, they make this claim. If only it were true...

Read the article (such as it was) but didn't see the reference to a turbo-charge.

It's in the back of the Motor Trend magazine, where they have a summary of all the cars that they test.
