Apparently you didn't read my post:

Look, Automatic transmissions suck more power than manuals. Manuals are more efficient, so thats one strike against the SVX right there.

SECONDLY, and more importantly, the SVX is AWD, which means that it has a LOT of parasitic loss through the drivetrain. AWD cars generally lose up to about 1/3 of their power through the drivetrain.
