The Best Engine Configuration: A Tribute to the ENJOMOR V12 Engine|EngineDIY
January 14, 2025When it comes to choosing the "best" engine configuration, there’s no universal answer—it depends on the specific requirements like budget, power, space, weight, and emissions. But, if I had to pick one engine that represents the pinnacle of internal combustion, it would undoubtedly be the V12 .
The V12 : A Symbol of Power and Smoothness
The V12 is revered for its balance, smoothness, and sound. It's the embodiment of engine excellence and a symbol of automotive history. The first V12 engine was built in 1904 for racing boats, and soon after, it found its way into aircraft, luxury cars, and motorsports, becoming the engine of choice for the world’s most prestigious manufacturers like Ferrari and Lamborghini.
Why the V12 is So Special
The V12's smoothness comes from its perfect inherent balance. It consists of two inline-six engines, providing "double-perfect" balance—making it incredibly smooth with minimal vibration. The engine fires every 60° of crankshaft rotation, creating frequent power strokes that overlap and reduce vibrations, resulting in unmatched smoothness.
Although some might argue that a W16, like in the Bugatti Veyron, is even smoother, the V12 wins in terms of weight, revving capability, and history. Its sound, a high-pitched howl, is another defining characteristic, thanks to its firing intervals and exhaust system.
V12 in Motorsport
The V12 also dominated motorsport, particularly Formula 1, where it powered legendary cars from Ferrari, Maserati, and Honda in the 60s and 70s. Even today, manufacturers like Ferrari and Pagani use V12 engines to deliver thrilling performance and driving experiences.
The Legacy of the V12
In an era of downsizing and stricter emissions standards, the V12 may be fading from mass production, but it remains a testament to engineering mastery. Its smoothness, power, and iconic sound will always make it a favorite among automotive enthusiasts.
