Its not necessarily the case that smaller engines and platforms are bad; Far from it. Its just in comparison to the raw power and excellence of the past V powered cars that makes anything other than the v8 platform seem weak.
The V6 in the ATS-V was at least as powerful as any V8 powered V car from before the 2nd gen (LSA powered) CTS-V. That includes the early supercharged V8s.
