A toss up. Best motor as to design; power versus economy. But, latest six speed auto is double overdrive. Thus, 3.42 rear gears behind more powerful motor instead of 3.73 needed to launch this one.
But layers of expensive emissions devices and high dollar turbocharger make it a less likely bet for true low operational cost per mile.
