The turbo s is proably the most efficient, sports/supercar you can buy, even being able to gap a plaid from 0 to 80 till it catches but it was only 600 hp. Crazy to think about it like that.

The Bugatti EB110SS that came out around the same time as the XJ220 with similar spec was probably worth a mention… It had a 3.5l quad turbo 60 valve V12 that put out 603hp and managed 0-62 mph in just over 3.4 seconds. The cylinder count may not be small, but the capacity was.
I think Koenigsegg Gemera is an honorable mention too. A 1.9 liter hybrid by Williams making 600hp just from the gas motor! The whole thing’s got 1677hp. Insane.
In Formula 1 in the 1980s (the turbo generation) there were 1.6ltr 4 cylinder turbo charged engines putting out 900-1000bhp! The ultimate was a BMW version that could output possibly up to 1500bhp in qualifying trim! In the early 80s!

And not just power to weight, it's bloody fast period. Add to that it's not that expensive considering the performance. Much faster than the specs would suggest on any twisty bit of tarmac.
The F40 was the first where the company advertised the 200mph barrier was crossed, but the first car that was released that could truly do it was the Porsche 959
The 959 topped out at about 196/197 mph, it's the 959s that broke the 200 mph mark. It doesn't matter though, because the 959 was a homologation special, not an actual production car like the F40 was. So the F40 still gets to claim the first production car to break 200 mph. Now some may want to argue that the Dodge Challenger actually did it first, but even that isn't true. Because the one that did reach 200 was a race modified vehicle. A Daytona that got sold out of a showroom wasn't the same as the one that hit 200 mph, and again the version that hit 200 was once again a homologation special which was made so Dodge could race that design.
Showed this video to my wife. She fell on the floor holding her sides because of the pain from laughing so hard. When she had recovered I helped her to stand asking what was so funny. Red faced my wife looked at me as I was from another planet. Shaking her head my wife said that when top performace is needed there is no option but size. Smiling at me she went on to say "bigger is always better baby." We did not have time to talk about it any more as she had to leave for her weekly class in rug hooking.

@@nicolasgoncalvespereira655 Argh that's a tough one. They say modern cars don't have character and all look the same. Well this is an exception. All four are amazingly and uniquely designed with beauty but also functionality in mind. That's what makes them so timeless. For me however the reason why I don't think the cx75 has a better design than the Porsche and the mc is because it is a much safer design and not as daring and for that reason i think it has aged a bit more than the other 3. However,this is just my opinion. I might be wrong. At the end of the day,all 4 are pinnacles of engineering and technology that to this day still manage to look jaw dropping
@@kilotiger7780 Exactly my thoughts. It's called the "Holy Trinity", not only because of their spetacular achievements and engineering, but especially because even though they are modern supercars, they look achingly beautiful. Most modern supercars look generic, repetitive and undistinctive. But not these 4 don't. They will age well and always look good. The holy grail of automotive industry.
9:08 I wondered when you're going to talk about the Mercedes AMG 1,especially after you talked about his brother, the Mercedes c63se performance, and aspecially when the AMG 1 makes more power, from an even smaller(although a not a 4 cylinder) formula 1 grade v6 turbo hybrid engine, that producing around a 1000+ horsepower, that, from my calculation, means that it's almost as, I'd not more efficient then the c63se performance.
Dude wasn’t lying about the next vid being about small engines( go to the most overlooked cars vid and check for the replies under my comment to understand it)
Am I the only one who prefer smaller engines over the big ones? I mean, sure 600HP from a 6.2L V8 is a good number, but 600HP from a 2.0L 4 cylinder engine? That's impressive, and not to mention that being smaller means that this engine need to rev higher than bigger engines, so the sounds is music to my ears...🤤
@@TopCarsTV Depends how many power you put in that engine, where is its redline, how strong are the engine internals and how reliable are its electronics. So 600HP from a 2.0L 4 cylinder is possible for a road car, but anything beyond that wouldn't work reliably.
@@TopCarsTV Yes, but that's a F1 engine that was converted for road use, and originally it had 850HP from the ICE alone plus 160HP from the MGU-K, resulting in more than 1.000HP, but because of they all the known reasons, they adapted the engine, reduced it's redline from 15k rpm to 11k rpm, changed the engine internals, and added new stuff to make it daily-drivable (new coolimg system, starter motor, etc.). Now a clean-sheet design 2.0L I4 road car engine could reach those 600HP if it was designed for that purpose from scratch. So it depends from case to case...
I still want to know why you thought the gemera wasn't worth the list yes it's expensive as fk and mostly electric but since when was 600hp from a 2L not an achievement. still a great list and vid
This video isn't about small engines with lots of power, but fast cars with small engines. Gemera is fast mostly because of electric motors, and that's why it's not going in the list. Having a small but punchy engine doesn't change that. It's like that part in Top Gear when they mocked American Green Car of the year - Cadillac Escalade Hybrid with 5.7L V8 and a small battery.
@@TopCarsTV yeah I get that But you've got to be impressed by the engineering, I can't stop imagining something like an a110 with this engine Or maybe in an "entry level" smol ferrari back with the dino badge Hell, even in something like a gr yaris. Yes gemera might not be a fast car with small engine but the possibilities are limitless. But then again I'm confused why such big manufacturers won't make something like this, I don't think they can't.
5:18 all those numbers but still slower in a quarter mile race than the M3 which has a 170hp disadvantage. this could be a technical achievement for the ice but its hybrid system doesn't work like it's supposed to. You get that 680hp if the car "feels" like it and the car that we're talking about is the same weight as a charger hellcat so no surprise it's slower and worse in every single way than its BMW competitor. And that price tag for a small, not so well built saloon with an unnecessary hybrid system that doesn't even work, also made by a brand that should've known way better... I think I can say this is one of the worst cars, in the world.
I think it depends...personally on a circuit I think a bigger displacement is better than forced induction because there's no surprises: You push the gas, you have gas. In turbocharger you have lag, in supercharger you have parasitic loss that makes the engine feels heavy and increase the time to rev just like a heavy flywheel. A big naturally aspirated engine can have more low end torque for corner exit and keep the revs "light".
Turbo is a displacement supplementer, the mazda is 1.3 but the turbo ensures it ingests more than that in volume of air... An engine is a pump a turbo is a pump on pump makes air compressed and dense then stuff the other pump so 1.3 is the static displacement but not the final
A Danny Trejo joke, and Stype is still alive... the man is a legend!
