Widest range in engine size / power in a single model?
Discussion
Inspired by the "big engine but you wouldn't know it" thread ...
what single model has the widest range - original factory as opposed to after fit behemoth engines - in terms of engine size and / or power?
Best I could think of as an example was the old Capri, available with a 1296cc 4 up to a 3 ltr V6.

Well A6's biggest engine is 2.5 times the size and 3.5 times the power of the smallest one. Can that really not be bettered?
The Rover 75 manages 1.8 up to 4.6, which is a slightly bigger proportional difference in capacity; but can't get close power-wise.
The current C-class goes from a 1.6 (I think) up to a 6.2, which is 3.9 times the size.
ETA: The C-class does fairly well in the power stakes too, from 137bhp up to 450bhp, which is 3.4 times. Doesn't quite beat the Audi,though.
