Are all Volkswagen cars front-wheel drive?
1 Answers
All Volkswagen cars are front-wheel drive. Driveshaft configuration: Omission of the driveshaft reduces vehicle weight and results in a more compact structure; it effectively utilizes engine compartment space, provides a more spacious cabin, and helps lower the floor height to improve ride comfort. Engine: The engine's proximity to the drive wheels enhances power transmission efficiency and fuel economy; positioning the engine and other assemblies at the front increases front axle load, improving handling stability at high speeds and directional stability during braking; it also simplifies the rear suspension system. When driving on snowy or slippery roads, the front wheels pulling the body helps maintain directional stability.
