i would look at torque, and something to look at is one a 4 cylinder vs a 6. HP rating is a fickle number. I have seen 4 cylinders at 200hp and 6 with 200HP, some with charger on some with not. being 1 gear i always like to know the torque specs and all other performance specs. Usually the 4 cylinder does not out perform the 6 for obvious reasons, or if it is, its due to performance mods and other things that will change it efficiency and repair costs in the future
