Ehh.... show me a car with hydraulics and a 8,500 rev limiter?
There might be one... but not off the top of my head...and certainly not the norm. Low revving for a bike is not low revving for physics of oil movement.

Indeed, not the norm. But just for curiosity:
Toyota celica/corolla t-sport vvtl-i 192cv
I think it red-lines at 9.600. I drove one: the fun started at 6400rpm
(The engine was developed by Yamaha, so it's basically a big bike engine
)
