I wasn't saying new cars are slow by any means. It just seemed odd in the horsepower wartime we live in today, the base models seemed to have been forgotten about. Purely on a numbers-only basis.

I think HP is related to displacement, and in the quest for mpg, 2.0L is the de facto choice with less HP than, say, 3.0L.
However 0-60 is augmented by turbo, e.g. latest B46 2.0L turbo can hit 5.4 seconds, while also provides 40-42mpg in not-so-eco driving.
So for one, I do not think 250+HP is that bad.
