That title goes to Mercedes-Benz and their 2.0L 4-cylinder turbocharged engine found inside the CLA 45 AMG.
355 hp
332 lb.ft of torque
0-100 km/h in 4.6 seconds
Top speed – 250 km/h
Engine is hand-built, start to finish, by one technician
Starting at $50,600
Sold out in Canada
(pictured above is a CLA 250, but the AMG looks similar enough, with the main difference being the badge on the back)
(non car nerds: AMG is Mercedes’ line of high-performance vehicles, see this chart)
(to be clear – the post title refers to a “production engine found in a consumer vehicle”)
(I did not mean for this post to have so many brackets)
