Four-cylinder engines still don't have the same cachet as their bigger 6-and-8-cylinder siblings, but the auto industry is in love with them. Using a turbocharged 4-pot is an easy way to reach traditional 6- and 8-cylinder power while simultaneously reducing emissions. Although the 4-cylinder might never reach the iconic status of a V8, there are some impressive examples out there.

When it comes to powerful straight-six motors, few automakers match BMW's ability to squeeze huge horsepower and torque figures out of one. They've been doing it for decades, most notably in their M-powered models such as the M3. BMW's first powerful straight-six came to us back in 1972, and was installed within the first iteration of the BMW 3.0 CSL.

When the legendary Supra name was brought back to the market in its modern incarnation for the 2020 model year, many die-hard Supra fans were somewhat skeptical of the Japanese brand’s collaboration with BMW. The GR Supra, however, quickly proved itself to be a fan favorite and worthy of carrying the historic nameplate, masterfully combining its BMW components with a distinct character all of its own. Its combination of an inline-six engine and a six-speed manual was unique on the market until very recently when BMW decided to introduce a manual option in the Z4 with the new “Handschalter Pack” for the 2025 model year.

Do you understand the role torque plays in your car? Torque is the measurement of your engine’s ability to do work, and the more torque an engine offers, the more quickly it should be able to accelerate off the line. For this reason, sports cars don’t only focus on horsepower for performance, but also emphasize torque for improved acceleration times.

10 Sports Cars With The Most Torque In 2024

The 2024 Porsche 911 Carrera is the base model in the model's lineup, but there's nothing entry-level about it. Looking at its stats, the 911 Carrera is powered by a twin-turbo 3.0-liter flat six-cylinder engine that produces 379 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque. That kind of power can rocket the rear-drive coupe to 60 mph from a stop in only 4.0 seconds and up to a top speed of 182 mph.

The new M5 Touring can store 500 liters (17.7 cubic feet) of cargo behind the rear seats. Fold the 40:20:40-split bench and the luggage volume jumps to 1,630 liters (57.6 cubic feet).
