Its not SOHC vs DOHC or 2 valves vs 4. Cylinder aspect ratio & cam profile (among other things) can be designed to give the power at lower rpm or at higher rpm. Saab chose lower, BMW chose higher rpm (for those particular engines). Variable valve timing, VTEC, VANOS, & stuff like that helps some, but the engine designer still has to decide where to put the power.
