Building the actual circuits is beyond me at this point, but I'm wondering if it's technically possible to jump start a car from the power contained in a large lithium-ion laptop battery.

For example, I have athis laptop battery with the following specs:

11.1V 8.4Ah 94Wh

And I see a car jump-starter product here with the following specs:

Battery Capacity: 12Ah
Gas powered vehicles - 4.0L and lower displacements
Jumpstart your car battery 20 times on a full charge

Would it be technically possible to MacGyver a connection that could jump start a small car (let's say 4-cylinder gasoline for the sake of example) from my laptop battery?

And if not, what is fundamentally different about the type of battery they use in the linked product that causes it to withstand the startup current?
