10 Best Engines of 2019 According to Wards List includes EV powertrains, two big V8s… and a hydrogen fuel-cell system

3.6L DOHC Pentastar eTorque V6 (RAM 1500)

The FCA Group’s 3.6L Pentastar V6 engine has been rewarded in the past, most recently last year with the Pacifica hybrid. It’s back again this year, in good part due to a new technology called eTorque, a 48-volt light-hybrid system that improves fuel economy. Wards’ tests on the RAM 1500 produced an average of just under 11L/100 km.
