Porsche Cayenne V8 engine. Seven years later, after production ended for the first generation engine, a third Porsche model line with a redesigned eight-cylinder engine caused quite a response. The sports car manufacturer had started on the new Cayenne SUV. The new engine line, with its entirely new design, constituted two engines.
For this inline-4 engine, 1-3-4-2 could be a valid firing order. The firing order of an internal combustion engine is the sequence of ignition for the cylinders. In a spark ignition (e.g. gasoline/petrol) engine, the firing order corresponds to the order in which the spark plugs are operated. In a diesel engine, the firing order corresponds to ...

The 2023 model year Chevrolet Corvette Z06 has the largest flat-plane V8 ever seen in production cars at 5.5 litres. [ 5 ] The way in which a flat-plane works within a V8 engine is more like two in-line 4-cylinder engines mated together, [ 1 ] with the firing order of each order being in a Right-Left-Right-Left-Right-Left-Right-Left pattern.

In 2016, Audi and Porsche released a new turbocharged V6 engine they dubbed EA839. These 2.9L (biturbo) & 3.0L (single turbo) V6 engines share the 4.0T TFSI V8's “hot vee” design, meaning the turbo(s) are placed in the Vee of the engine (between each bank of cylinders) instead of on the outside of each cylinder bank.
