288-hp V8 Engine

With all-aluminum construction, the SC's 4.3-liter engine gets 288 horsepower [1] and 317 lb-ft of torque [1]. It can go from 0 to 60 mph in a remarkable 5.8 seconds [1] [2]. The Acoustic Control Induction System (ACIS) adjusts intake tract length for optimal torque.

[1]Ratings achieved using the required premium unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 91 or higher. If premium fuel is not used, performance will decrease. [2]Performance figures are for comparison only and were obtained with prototype vehicles by professional drivers using special safety equipment and procedures. Do not attempt. Back to top
