How V12 Engines Work

The V12 engine is one of the smoothest running engines that exists. It's two inline six cylinders matched to a common crankshaft, so it's inherently balanced at any V orientation. Also, because it has more cylinders than an I6, the power strokes overlap more and thus power delivery is smoother. The V12 engine has been used in many exotic brands, such as Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Pagani.
