ARM has, optionally,the very capable SVE instruction set, but no consumer chips currently implement it.

The M1 and later big cores can dispatch four NEON FMA instructions per clock, so 512 bits worth of vector math, which compares OK with most Intel or AMD chips (Zen 4 can do two 256-bit MUL and two ADD, and Intel "client" bigcores since Sunny Cove typically do three 256-bit FMA).
