Turbocharged engines are typically small and light. However, the way they operate allows them to generate significantly more power than their conventional peers.Â
This extra muscle gets produced by using exhaust to push excess air into the engine, forcing it to burn more fuel per second. Because the emissions don't get wasted, the process is exceptionally efficient overall. Â
An example of the advantages of this setup comes from the 2021 Jeep Cherokee. Its standard 3.2L Pentastar V6 produces 271 horsepower and 239 lb.-ft of torque. The available 2.0L turbo I-4 creates 270 hp and 295 lb.-ft despite being much smaller.Â
