We've just driven the all-new 2024 Mercedes-AMG C63 S E Performance, and while its 2.0-liter turbocharged hybrid powertrain's 671 horsepower impresses, the small-capacity engine simply does not stir our souls as the old V8 did. Despite numerous negative reactions to this mill, enthusiasts will be displeased to know that Affalterbach is already hard at work testing an all-electric replacement, as seen in new spy shots.

W8 engine cars never caught on. In fact, "cars" isn't the right word because only one ever reached mass production.

Here's what you need to know about one of Volkswagen's weirdest models.

When the new BMW M5 saloon made its debut a good two months ago, it briefly blew up the internet and there was hardly anyone who didn't have an opinion on it. The reason, of course, was its immense weight, which doesn't really fit in with a performance car. Whether the M5 Touring will also break the WWW today remains to be seen, however, there are certainly enough reasons for this.

While everyone expects blazing performance from a bright-red sports car, it’s those understated sleepers that’ll surprise you. And one of the most compelling of the bunch is the new Mercedes-Benz AMG C 43 4Matic sedan, a distinguished but not outrageously expensive four-door family automobile that just happens to have a Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula 1-derived engine under the hood—one of the most powerful 2.0-liter motors in the world.

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.
