	Flat engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It can be an inline engine canted 90 degrees from straight up, and also can be a boxing engine sometimes referred to as a boxermotor, in which the cylinders are arranged in two banks on either side of a single crankshaft so that the motion of all the pistons is in a single plane.
		Front-mounted air-cooled flat-twin engines were used by Citroën in their model 2CV and its derivatives, while the Citroën GS used a flat-4, and a flat-6 was proposed for the Citroën DS but rejected.
		These engines can run very smoothly and free of vibrations with a four-stroke cycle, regardless of number of cylinders, and do not require a balance shaft or counterweights on the crankshaft to balance the weight of the reciprocating parts which are required in other engine configurations.
