Why is Subaru still using Boxer engines in all its cars?


A brief history on Boxer Engines
The boxer engine, also called a flat engine, has horizontal cylinders instead of vertical cylinders, and the pistons move in opposing directions. It was invented by Karl Benz in 1897. The term "contra engine" was used to describe a driving system in which two horizontally opposed cylinders rotated a single crankshaft simultaneously.

Known as the contra unit, it was the first boxer-type engine in automotive history – and it was used in various applications, including passenger automobiles, commercial trucks, and racing cars. Compared to in-line engines, this innovative drive system provided several benefits.
