What are the best 8-cylinder cars?
My doctor and I were chatting about 8-cylinder cars during my recent appointment. What are the best 8-cylinder cars?
Jason Tushinski · Updated on
Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
The best 8-cylinder cars today range from the luxurious Mercedes E Class to the uniquely American Corvette, and from the Charger to Porsche’s Panamera.
Here are a few that stand out:
Mercedes E Class
Forever a leader in luxury, the Stuttgart-based Mercedes AMG E63 S is a gorgeous, powerful wagon, sporting a thunderous **twin-turbocharged 4.0 L V8 engine with 603 horsepower.
Audi A7
The Germans from Ingolstadt know a thing or two about cars, and the Audi A7 is a fantastic example of their expertise—the high-performance RS7 boasts a twin-turbo V8 mild hybrid system with 591 horsepower.
BMW 5 Series
BMW belongs in any conversation about V8 engines, and the M550i fits in perfectly with its twin-turbo V8 sporting 523 horsepower, not to mention the sporty M5 and its exquisitely-powerful 4.4 L V8 with 620 horsepower.
Chevrolet Corvette
America’s own exotic car has housed a V8 engine since 1955, and today’s is no exception—the current Corvette features a 6.2 L V8 engine with 495 horsepower that goes from 0 to 60 seconds in 2.8 seconds.
Dodge Charger
The Charger features a big 5.7 L V8 Hemi with a startlingly bold 370 horsepower. If that’s not enough power, strap into the supercharged 6.2 L Hellcat boasting 707 horsepower.
Porsche Panamera
With breathtaking performance and sublime handling, the Panamera will easily seduce you with its twin-turbo 4.0 L V8 engine with 473 horsepower—upgrade to the hybrid and the engine and electric motor bring 685 horsepower!
