flat four
A flat four engine is a type of engine where the four cylinders are laid out flat instead of standing up. This helps the car handle better when driving fast.
A flat four engine, also known as a boxer engine, has four cylinders arranged horizontally. This design lowers the center of gravity and can improve handling, making it popular in performance cars like Subarus.
