Yes, they usually are, but it can differ from car to car. For example, a Chevy Suburban is faster than a smart car because there are more pistons in the engine, creating more torque and speed, therefore making the car go faster. On the other hand, however, a motorcycle is faster than most cars, yet they have smaller engines.
