Peak power climbs from 641bhp to 710bhp, torque from 500 lb ft to 568 lb ft and both outputs are
produced at lower engine speeds — 7000rpm for the former (250rpm lower than a 650S), while the latter is available between 5500 and 6500rpm compared to the 650S where torque all arrives at 6000rpm.
Not exact matches
That all takes us back to my earlier comments about heavy vehicles, diesel
engines, and torque; as they
produce high torque values quite well,
at low engine speeds, over a wide rev range, and they do it reasonably reliably too.
Kia said the turbocharged 2.0 - liter four - cylinder
engine was retuned for 2016 with a smaller turbo and a torque curve that
produces more torque
at lower engine speeds.
Though the literal power band covers most of the operating RPM range, particularly in first gear (as there is no
lower gear to shift down to, and no «flat spot» in which the
engine does not
produce any power), the effective band changes in each gear, becoming the range limited
at the upper end by either the limiter, or a point roughly located between peak power and the redline where power drops off, and
at the
lower end the
engine's idling
speed.
The V - Twin
engine powering the V9 Bobber and the Roamer is said to
produce 55 HP of power
at 6250 RPM and 62 Nm of torque
at a
low 3000 RPM, indicating its intent of cruising
at low speeds.

produced a notably smother performance
at low engine speeds with greater flexibility.
In 2004, the 2.7 liter
engine was modified for the LX series to
produce more
low -

at launch and during mid-range operation for strong performance in everyday driving.
Meanwhile, the range - topping SD4 diesel has two turbochargers and uses a «series - sequential boosting» system, with the smaller turbo helping
at low revs, and the larger second turbo joining in
at higher
engine speeds to
produce a hefty 237bhp and 500Nm.
As a result of the benefits these technologies bring, a mono scroll turbocharger can be used to
produce a class - leading peak output, while maintaining response
at lower engine speeds and a high - revving power delivery.
The IMA concept seems straightforward and sensible on paper, but on the road, the Civic's gas
engine doesn't
produce enough torque
at low engine speeds, even with the assistance of the electric motor.
The
engine has been improved to
produce more
low -
speed torque
at launch and during mid-range operation for strong performance in everyday driving.
3.0 - LITER SUPERCHARGED V6 Although the naturally aspirated V8 in last year's S5 Coupe
produced marginally more horsepower, this year's supercharged 3.0 - liter V6 in the S5 delivers just as much torque and
at a
lower engine speed, making it just as usable in most driving situations.
The combustion chamber's design
produces greater turbulence and better gas combustion
at low engine speeds, and also obtains optimum performance in the high
engine -
speed range thanks to improved cylinder filling.
Variable Camshaft Phasing
produces faster response and performance
at all
engine speeds — with more torque
at low speeds and maximum power
at high
speeds.
The two counter-rotating chargers
produce maximum torque figures
at very
low engine speeds.
The U2 1.7 - liter diesel
engine, also designed and engineered
at the Rüsselsheim R&D centre,
produces 115 PS
at a
lower rpm level of 4000 rpm, while generating 260 N · m of torque and mated to the latest 6
speed manual transmission.
This
engine produces 128 hp (95 kW)
at 5,500 rpm and 156 lb - ft (212 N · m) of torque
at a
low 1,400 ~ 3,700 rpm and will be mated to an EcoShift seven -
speed dual - clutch transmission.
Upholding its engineering reputation, BMW fits the 4.4 - liter V - 8 with its double - VANOS continuously variable valve timing and direct injection, making for an
engine that
produces plenty of torque
at low speeds.
The
engine has been tuned to
produce more tug
at lower speeds, which helps in stop - and - go daily slogs.
Oversize
engines designed to operate
at low working loads with high efficiency,
producing less
engine noise and vibration
at normal cruising
speed.
The flow of electrical current to the motor that moves a hybrid vehicle
at low speeds (and assists the gasoline
engine on the highway)
produces magnetic fields, which some studies have associated with serious health matters, including a possible risk of leukemia among children.
