With another year having come and gone, it means that there is a whole new year of new powertrains and engines to look forward to. As auto technology progresses, so do propulsion systems, as they become more powerful and efficient with every new calendar cycle. Last year brought a slew of new tech and engineering […]
Source: BMW Since 1995, when Wards began its 10 Best Engines awards, BMW has walked away with 32 of them. As a new trim for BMW’s line of 3 Series cars, the 340i nestles on the top end in terms of refinement and power and carries on the tradition. Capable of 320 horsepower thanks to […]
Source: Cadillac The 3.6 liter V6 sees dual action in both the Chevrolet Camaro and the Cadillac ATS — a peculiar pairing, being that one is so brash and another is so refined. Nonetheless, Wards was impressed enough by the engine that it awarded it and its 335 horsepower and 285 pound-feet of twist a […]
Source: Chevrolet New from the ground up for 2016, the Chevrolet Volt uses a next-gen Voltec powertrain that’s been prodded and tweaked to deliver over 50 miles of pure electric driving before the dinosaur juice kicks in. “If consumers found anything objectionable in the first Volt, it appears they’ve all been fixed in the second,” […]

Boasting 27 miles of electric range before utilizing the gasoline engine, the Sonata PHEV manages between 41 and 80 miles per […]
Source: Nissan The 3.5 liter V6 in Nissan’s new Maxima isn’t as groundbreaking as other powertrains found on this list, but the “VQ makes for light, lively and refined power delivery, and the sterling midrange torque is still there.” Wards notes that “61% of the new VQ’s parts have been redesigned to reduce friction and […]
Source: Ram Considered the only diesel in its segment, the 3.0 liter V6 built by VM Motori in Italy provides a hefty lump of 420 pound-feet of torque paired with respectable fuel economy figures to make the Ram 1500 and Jeep Grand Cherokee some of the most competitive in their fields. “Ten days of testing […]
Source: Subaru Making Wards’s list for the second time in as many years is Subaru’s stellar “poster child for high-output, affordable turbocharged 4s.” Its flat format keeps weight low, while 268 horsepower from four cylinders is nothing to sneeze at. It beat out four other four-cylinder turbos for the spot, and “makes the WRX fast, […]
