Allene (1,2-propadiene) has point group D2d, itself is achiral because it has two planes of symmetry. ... An allene with substituents on one terminal carbon atom are unlike and substituent on other terminal carbon atoms are same, allene will be achiral. It will have one symmetry plane.

Hope this helped :)
