Is the Porsche 718's engine horizontally opposed?
1 Answers
The Porsche 718's engine is horizontally opposed, with the advantage of a low center of gravity, which can significantly reduce the vehicle's center of gravity and improve its handling. The Porsche 718 is equipped with two engines: a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine and a 2.5-liter turbocharged engine. The Porsche 718 is a mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive sports car. Its engine features direct fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission for fast gear shifts, making it well-suited for sports car use. Both the front and rear suspensions of the Porsche 718 use MacPherson independent suspension.
