According to Midual, there are reasons beyond marketing for the design and layout of the engine. The 900cc flat twin employed by the Midual roadster purports to contribute to a lower center of gravity, light weight, and simplicity. It also puts out respectable horsepower for a 900cc twin (90 hp). With fuel injection and a five-speed gear box, the Midual roadster will have more than adequate performance. But buyers of the Midual (should it ever see production) will not be looking for performance alone - they will want character. They will find it in the Midual.
