Dodge Charger Super Bee Boosts Inline-Six to 600hp with Turbo, Brakes and Aero

Dodge revives the Charger Super Bee with a 3.0-liter twin-turbo inline-six tuned to 600hp and 531 lb-ft of torque, aided by two Garrett turbos, upgraded cooling and a revised ECU. The Launch Edition adds 16-inch Brembo brakes, 20-inch forged wheels, adaptive dampers, and an aero package, plus a redesigned front end for better airflow; 0–60mph is 3.6 seconds and the quarter mile 11.8 seconds. The package is aimed at track performance as well as straight-line speed, with two- or four-door configurations and pricing to be announced later this year.

Inline-Six Revival Gains Traction Across Mazda, Dodge, Mercedes, Land Rover

Automakers are reviving inline-six engines for smoother operation and efficiency. Mazda launches a 3.3L turbo inline-six in the CX-90 (also in CX-60/70), Dodge/Jeep/Ram use a 3.0L Hurricane twin-turbo for strong performance, Mercedes-Benz adds the M256 Evo 3.0L with up to 503 hp in PHEV form, and Land Rover offers the Ingenium 3.0L with 395–542 hp in mild-hybrid and PHEV variants. Benefits cited include simpler production (one head and exhaust manifold), smoother operation, and improved efficiency versus V6s.

The Smooth-but-Bulky Reality of Inline-Six Engines

The Smooth-but-Bulky Reality of Inline-Six Engines

Inline-six engines are prized for smoothness and torque, but their long, tall block creates packaging and center-of-gravity challenges, can hinder crash safety and transverse installation, and introduces crankshaft torsional vibrations that require dampers. Longer, more convoluted intake runners can cause uneven air/fuel distribution across cylinders, and timing-chain maintenance can be expensive, factors that help explain why inline-sixes remain common mainly in rear-drive and truck applications rather than modern transverse layouts.

Six-Cylinder Return: Mercedes-AMG GLC 53 Delivers Turbo Inline-Six Power

Mercedes-AMG brings back a six-cylinder engine in the GLC 53 with a turbo 3.0-liter inline-six producing 443 hp and 472 lb-ft of torque (overboost for 10 seconds), plus updated internals and intercooler for stronger performance. It hits 0–60 mph in 4.1 seconds and tops out at 167 mph with the Dynamic Plus Package, and there’s a Coupe variant. AWD with an optional drift mode and standard rear-axle steering are included, and pricing wasn’t disclosed but is expected to sit between the GLC 43 and GLC 63 ranges.

"Mesmerizing Sounds: Inline-Six Engine Hits Mind-Blowing 10K RPM+"

A fascinating video showcases the assembly and tuning of a tiny 21cc inline-six engine, reminiscent of the Ford 300-cubic-inch powerplant. The builder makes adjustments to improve performance, including replacing the water pump and cylinder head gasket. Despite initial tuning issues, the engine revs beyond 10,000 rpm and the builder plans to further enhance it with a functional mechanical water pump, new exhaust, and a possible switch to a single-carburetor setup. The Howin L6-210 engine kit is available for $1,299.99 with a $200 coupon.
