Here it is in the flesh: the world's most powerful “series-produced four-cylinder engine”. It's the Mercedes-Benz GLA 45 AMG and it's fast. Like, 4.8-seconds-to-sixty-miles-an-hour kind of fast. So, despite the tiny engine (2.0-liters), the GLA – AKA, the latest of the “Compact-SUVs” – offers 360 hp and 450 Nm of torque. How have they done that?
