For ambient sound, usually a condenser mic is better suited, because it's more sensitive and therefore has a better "range". But outside, wind can be an issue, you'll need a fur-like windscreen (a.k.a. "dead cat").
As for the sound of an engine, it could be loud ... Would the mic be onboard, or on the side of the road ?
