A v10 engine contains two sets of 5 cylinders, which are set exactly opposite each other, at a 90 degrees angle. This is to try to eliminate the rocking motion which is evident in a straight 10 engine, however there may still be some motion which can be corrected by two extra balance shafts. This engine makes a unique exhaust sound when running.
