🔧 Why Don’t Cars Use Inline-8 Engines Anymore? 🚗 • In this video, we dive deep into the history and engineering behind one of the most intriguing engine designs—the Inline-8 (or Straight-8) engine. Once popular in luxury cars during the early 20th century, the Inline-8 offered smooth power delivery and torque. So, why don’t modern cars use these long engines anymore? 🤔 • Join us as we explore: • The history and early popularity of the Inline-8 in iconic brands like Buick, Packard, and Bugatti. • The downsides of the Inline-8, including its large size, weight distribution issues, and complex construction. • How the V8 engine outshined the Inline-8 with its compact design and better power-to-weight ratio. • Why modern engineering favors smaller inline-4 and inline-6 engines for efficiency and performance. • Where you can still find Inline-8 engines in action—classic car shows and restorations. • 💬 Have a favorite engine configuration?
