The V10, which is produced at the engine plant in Hungary, in part by manual assembly, is very compact. Its low mounting position in the car results in a low center of gravity.

The crankshaft is designed as a common pin shaft. The connecting rods of opposing pistons are joined to a common crank pin, which results in alternating firing intervals of 54 and 90 degrees. This rhythm makes a big contribution toward producing a very unique, motorsport-like sound. Two flaps in the exhaust system let the driver choose between a comfort-oriented sound and a sporty sound. The entire sound stage is authentic - including the babbling sound when the foot is taken off the accelerator pedal and a more roaring sound when shifting gears under full load..
