The aircraft was powered by a version of the de Havilland Gipsy Major 4-cylinder inverted inline engine, licence built by Alfa Romeo, which produced 90 kW (120 hp) and drove a two blade propeller.
The XB-16 was to use four Allison V-1710 liquid-cooled inline engines; contemporary American aircraft used air-cooled radial engines.
The aircraft was powered by a single Maybach Mb.IVa water-cooled inline-engine providing 305 hp (228 kW), an engine type usually used to power Zeppelins or R-planes (Riesenflugzeuge like the Zeppelin-Staaken R.VI), received as part of Germany's reparations to Japan after the end of the First World War.
