Car models equipped with twin-turbocharged engines include: Mercedes-Benz S600, BMW X6, Volvo S80L Extended Edition, Audi A8L, Subaru Impreza, etc. Twin-turbocharging is one of the turbocharging methods designed to address the turbo lag phenomenon in exhaust gas turbocharging. It involves either connecting one large and one small turbocharger in series or two identical turbochargers in parallel. At low engine speeds, a smaller amount of exhaust gas can drive the turbocharger to rotate at high speed, generating sufficient intake pressure and reducing the turbo lag effect. Taking the 2021 Audi A8L as an example, it is a mid-to-large-sized car with the following dimensions: length 5302mm, width 1945mm, height 1483mm, wheelbase 3128mm, and minimum ground clearance 123mm.
I'm a true car enthusiast, especially obsessed with twin-turbocharged models—they drive like lightning! The BMW M5 is a classic example, starting with over 600 horsepower; the Mercedes-AMG GT Coupe has an astonishingly fast response; the Porsche 911 Turbo has optimized lag issues since older models; and the Nissan GT-R delivers perfect back-push acceleration on the track. Even the top-tier Ford F-150 Raptor uses twin turbos to balance utility and performance. These cars show significant power boosts while also improving fuel efficiency, making them regulars on my dream car list. Now, premium SUVs like the Audi RS Q8 and Volvo XC90 Polestar have joined in, expanding twin-turbo technology from sports cars to more segments, making daily driving safer and more thrilling—the tech is truly amazing!
