A vehicle includes a cradle having a structure substantially aligned along a horizontal plane, and a tower extending vertically upward from the structure. A powertrain is supported by the cradle, and includes an elastic axis, and a torque axis. An engine mounting system interconnects the powertrain and the cradle. The engine mounting system includes an engine mount that is attached to the tower, and a mounting bracket attached to the powertrain and the engine mount. An elastic center of the tower is laterally offset from the torque axis, and is vertically offset from the torque axis to position the engine mounting system, such that the elastic axis of the powertrain is substantially aligned with the torque axis of the powertrain.
