What is the Subaru Boxer Engine?
Traditional engines use vertical or v-shaped pistons to power the
vehicle. The Subaru Boxer engine uses horizontal pistons, which mimic the
movement of a boxer throwing punches, hence the name "Boxer" engine.
One of the main benefits of the Boxer engine is that the flat layout allows the
engine output to pair directly with the engine, which reduces inefficiencies
and results in better fuel economy as you're driving around Rogers, AR.
With horizontally opposed pistons, the Boxer engine can be placed
lower in the vehicle, resulting in a lower center of gravity and better
stability when you're driving in nearby Springdale, AR. There's also less
vibration created by the Boxer engine, allowing you to enjoy a smoother driving
experience around Bella Vista, AR.
What Kind of Boxer Engines Are Available?
The Subaru Impreza and Crosstrek both come equipped with a standard
2.0-liter four-cylinder Boxer engine that produces 152-horsepower. The
Forester, Outback, and Legacy come with a standard 2.5-liter four-cylinder
Boxer engine that produces 182-horsepower. The Outback and Ascent offer a
2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder Boxer engine with 260-horsepower.
