They might have developed the car to produce less power to gain better economy and increase engine life. An engine that is basically de-rated will also produce peek power all the time where many others olny produce peek power under standard conditions, sea level, certiant temp. ect. In aviation we use de-rated engines all the time because they are more likly to produce peek tourque at lower temp. which increases engine life. That would be my guess as to why it is only 170 hp.
