Albany, NY -- (SBWire) -- 08/10/2018 --Flat boxer engines are internal combustion engines consisting of four cylinders and four pistons for automobiles or two cylinders and two pistons for motorcycles. A pair of cylinders are horizontally placed 180 degree from each other and the pistons present inside the cylinder move in opposite direction to each other. Flat boxer engine was first invented by Karl Benz in 1896. They are known as boxer engines as the movement of engine pistons are similar to the act of boxers throwing punches on each other.

Flat boxer engines are used in passenger vehicles that allow power generated by the engine to flow directly into transmission. Flat boxer engines provide better fuel efficiency to all-wheel drive (AWD) vehicles compared to their counterpart, front wheel drive (FWD) vehicles. Flat boxer engines have a low center of gravity, thus lowering the center of gravity of vehicles. Low center of gravity help vehicles with flat boxer engines to more easily maneuvers. In flat boxer engines, pistons move in opposite directions and so cancels a vehicle's vibration, whereas in other type of engines (such as v-type and inline), additional components are required to control a vehicle's vibration. In the unfortunate event of a front-end collision of a vehicle which is installed with a flat boxer engine, the engine moves below the passenger compartments due to low center of gravity. This improves the safety of passengers. Flat boxer engines are widely used in motorcycles due to their low center of gravity, less vibration, and better maneuverability among other properties.
