The downsizing era is in full swing. BMW stopped selling a V-12 7 Series in 2022 when the M760i was retired. You can still have twelve cylinders in a Rolls-Royce, but the V-12 is never coming back in a car featuring the famous roundel. The V-10 has been dead for 15 years, so you might wonder when the axe will fall on the V-8. Thankfully, that won't happen anytime soon. You can primarily thank Americans for keeping the eight-cylinder engine alive.
