For 2025, the Toyota GR Corolla returns with the turbocharged three-cylinder engine and its stupendous 300 horsepower, but this sport compact car also makes 295 pound-feet of torque, a 22-pound-foot increase that was previously restricted to the 2023 Morizo special edition. A close-ratio eight-speed direct automatic transmission has been added...

There's a new BMW X3 for 2025. It looks sharp, has a high-tech interior, and goes on sale later this year with two updated engine options. But one thing that won't be available on the new X3 is a hot M model, as we've seen in previous generations. According to...

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.

The BMW i5 Touring is competing in a rarified segment considering there are only a handful of electric wagons. Audi wants a piece of the action with the new A6 Avant E-Tron, which spawns a high-performance S6 from day one.

The V-6 engine used to be the happy medium, providing more power than a four-cylinder and better gas mileage than a V-8. Now, thanks to forced induction, V-6s can chug gas with the best of them and outperform many iconic eight-cylinders. In fact, there are cars packing V-6 engines that blow away anything with a Hemi V-8 under the hood.

The Ward's AutoWorld publication has been going for over a century, so many are likely familiar with their Ward's 10 Best Engines selection, which is published once a year. To appear on the list is a credit to an engine's reliability, performance, and design. The list includes rigorous testing and evaluation by a panel of the publication's editors who consider factors such as horsepower, torque, fuel economy, and the application of new technologies.

Since the widespread adoption of automatic transmissions, manuals have mostly been associated with performance cars. Slapping through the gears while winding out the engine is a thrilling experience, and nothing launches a 426 Street Hemi off the line like a four-speed. Now that trucks have become daily drivers and even luxury vehicles, they mostly have automatics, but manual transmissions used to be the standard in pickups.

Much like film cameras losing out to digitals, the disappearance of the manual transmission from cars seems inevitable. Modern automatic transmissions are better for quick and efficient shifting and, as such, automakers have largely switched to them entirely for their vehicles. The vast majority of electric vehicles don’t have geared transmissions at all. Even well-known driver’s cars, such as the Chevrolet Corvette, no longer offer one.
