GREATER STABILITY
The SUBARU BOXER engine’s lightweight, compact design lowers
the vehicle center of gravity. Providing more stable handling characteristics to better
keep the car along its intended path, especially when changing direction quickly.
LESS VIBRATION
The 180-degree boxer engine layout allows the pistons to move in
exact horizontal opposition, effectively negating the vibrations of the opposing pistons.
Its smoothness not only sweetens power delivery, it helps increase longevity.
