An engine assembly includes an engine structure and an intake manifold assembly coupled to the engine structure. The engine structure defines first and second banks of cylinders. The intake manifold assembly includes first and second plenums and first and second sets of runners. The first and second plenums are located laterally between the first and second banks of cylinders. The second plenum is located laterally between the first plenum and the second bank of cylinders at first and second longitudinal ends of the intake manifold assembly and laterally between the first plenum and the first bank of cylinders at a medial region of the intake manifold assembly.
