I thought the BHP is around or nudging 310 now, at least on the works cars? Is 271 the official figure Skoda put out, for some reason?

All the R5 cars are around the 280bhp figures. I guess that is what they expect us to believe. br21 should know even better, but I think that all of them are in the +315bhp range. I known that the Hyundai it's the one with the more horses per example

I think all current R5 cars are between 300 and 320 Hp. Official numbers are always BS.
