Flat-plane crankshaft engines have been used in some high-performance sports cars,

including some models of the Chevrolet Corvette.

A flat-plane crankshaft engine is characterized by its unique crankshaft design,

which allows for more even firing intervals between cylinders,

resulting in a more aggressive and distinctive engine note.

This type of engine design can also improve engine balance and reduce vibration,

it will likely further enhance the car's reputation as a high-performance sports car.
