6 CYLINDER BOXER
The 6-cylinder Boxer engine is a true icon in the automotive world, celebrated for its unique flat design and incredible performance.
Unlike traditional inline or V-engines, the cylinders in a Boxer are arranged horizontally, facing each other in two banks of three. This 'pancake' layout offers a lower center of gravity, which translates to fantastic handling and stability, especially in corners.
Each cylinder has its own crankshaft throw, meaning pistons move towards each other simultaneously, canceling out vibrations. This results in a remarkably smooth and balanced operation, even at high RPMs.
Think Porsche – that's the quintessential Boxer experience! It's a symphony of engineering that delivers power with a distinctive, thrilling sound.
