Gas turbines are economically effective when larger than about 300hp. This border with time slow lowered, but I don't know, when it will appear somewhere about 50Kw of most popular automobiles (Toyota Corolla, WV Golf, Ford Focus).
When scaling down, gas turbines become much more expensive than ICE. For example on small planes market, exist many dual-powered models (in range 200-300hp), and with gas turbine it typically priced twice of ICU-powered with very similar parameters. Range of 1000hp+ on planes are near totally gas turbines.
