In early (12 valve) VR6 engines, one camshaft is used per bank of cylinders. This simplifies engine construction and reduces costs. The narrow angle between cylinder banks also allows just two camshafts to drive all of the valves, and a single cylinder head to be used. As a result, it is nearly as smooth as an Inline-6.

In addition, the VR6 is able to use the firing interval of an Inline-6 engine. A wider V6 engine of conventional design would have required lengthening existing vehicles to provide enough crumple zone between the front of the vehicle and the engine, and between the engine and the passenger cell. By using the narrow 15° VR6 engine, it was possible to install a six-cylinder engine in existing Volkswagen models. The VR6 was specifically designed for transverse installation in front wheel drive vehicles.

The combination of the two can be roughly translated as "in-line Vee.". The name, VR6 comes from a combination of Vee and the German word Reihenmotor (straight engine). It is similar to the V engine, but with the cylinders offset from each other and tilted by 15° instead of the usual 60°. VR6 is an engine configuration developed by the Volkswagen Group.
