This was also the case with BMW and Audi in the supertouring days.
eh ? Why do you think having a longitudinal engine means is mounted higher than a transverse engine ?

If anything it's mounted lower than the transverse as it's further back in the bulkhead and behind the front axle. Where as a transverse engine sits marginally above the front axle due to the gearbox/diff configuration.
