Debuting with descriptors such as "mind-bending," "like a freight train," and "next level," the new 2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 has the chops (on paper) to be the most powerful Corvette ever assembled. Think non-electrified 1,000+ horsepower from a twin-turbocharged 5.5-liter V8, a top speed of over 215 mph, plus a cool homage to the 1963 Corvette Stingray—this new sports car is out to kick supercar butt and take names.

2025 Corvette ZR1 Rips A New Top Speed With Mind-Blowing 1064 Horsepower

It used to be that an inline four-cylinder was just slightly more powerful than a lawnmower, but modern performance technology, as well as super and turbocharging, has made them formidable engines. In fact, there are some high-output I-4s that rival V-6s and even V-8s, both in horsepower and torque. Gone are the days when four-cylinders were only for sensible compacts, as they now power some of the hottest rides around.

The 2006 Dodge Charger R/T was a triumphant return for the iconic muscle car, and the higher trim level gave drivers something much beefier under the hood.

How Much HP Can A 2006 Dodge Charger R/T Produce And Does It Have A V6 Or V8 Engine?

For Ford fans, the performance years of the 1960s brought one advancement after another, and that time line begins with Ford’s assault at Indy in 1963 with its DOHC V-8 based on the small-block Windsor. Meanwhile, Ford’s “big-block”—the FE engine family—which began modestly in 1958 at 332-, 352-, and 360-cubic-inch displacements—had by the time of this story grown to 427 cubes and would power Ford to wins at Le Mans in 1966 and 1967. The subject of Eric Dahlquist’s original story, the 427-ci SOHC “Cammer,” was based on the FE and showed what could be done quickly within the warrens of Ford powertrain. At the time, it was unknown whether the engine would see production in factory-built cars (it wouldn’t), but for a short time the hemi-headed cammer would please crowds in A/FX cars built by Holman & Moody and Bill Stroppe Engineering before becoming a darling in the nitro-fueled ranks in front of drivers like Don Prudhomme, Connie Kalitta, Jack Chrisman, and Don Nicholson. —Johnny Hunkins.

The 5.9L Cummins diesel engine is best known for its time when it powered Dodge trucks beginning in 1989, and it's an engine that certainly helped propel the Ram into being one of the top pickup truck brands. If you're looking to get as much performance as possible out of 5.9L Cummins diesel, then you need to set your sights on the latest iteration of the engine that you can find. For the first several years, there's no difference in performance as the engine produced 160 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque from 1989 to 1993.

AFFALTERBACH, Germany – Rounding out the Mercedes reveals of Monterey Car Week (even if this one was shown in Germany), is another special version of the Mercedes-AMG GT3 race car. Called the Edition 130Y Motorsport, it's a special track car based on the competition vehicle, and it celebrates more than a century (130 years) since Mercedes first entered an automobile race. But because it's not built to compete professionally, Mercedes-AMG could ignore a variety of restrictions to make the fastest version of the car possible, and the last of the naturally-aspirated versions of the car.

These days, huge power doesn't necessarily have to come from an engine boasting huge displacement. Forced induction means you can have a much smaller engine producing the same, if not more power, than an 8.0-liter naturally aspirated V10. In fact, the most power-dense engine currently on sale is made in America, and it's smaller than the 3.4-liter twin-turbocharged V6 used in the Toyota Tundra.

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.
