Five inline-six engines outperform many modern V8s in horsepower

Five inline-six engines produce more factory horsepower than many modern V8s. These engines, including BMW's B58 and S58, Stellantis' Hurricane, Ford's Barra, and TVR's Speed Six, offer outputs exceeding 395 horsepower, surpassing benchmarks like the 2026 RAM 1500's Hemi. While V8s are known for their sound, turbocharged inline-sixes have become a viable alternative for high performance in production cars.
