AutoExec Summary
The biggest car engine ever made, the 28.4-litre Fiat S76, produced less power than a Volkswagen Golf R. The S76 reached a top speed of 213km/h in 1913 and made 216kW with 2712Nm of torque. Only two S76s were built, with one remaining after being restored by Duncan Pittaway. The engine was later sold for aircraft use. Unfortunately, engines of this size are unlikely to be made for cars again.

Brands mentioned:
Volkswagen, Fiat, Stutz, Forlanini, Honda
