It is not necessary to buy a four-wheel drive BMW 3 Series. Introduction to two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive: Two-wheel drive has a simple structure, with understeer and oversteer conditions, is more fuel-efficient, and has lower manufacturing and maintenance costs. Four-wheel drive allows all four wheels to be driven, has a complex structure, strong power, handling, and off-road capability, but slightly higher manufacturing and maintenance costs. Therefore, car owners should comprehensively consider their driving scenarios. Classification of four-wheel drive vehicles: Four-wheel drive vehicles can be divided into three types: part-time four-wheel drive, on-demand four-wheel drive, and full-time four-wheel drive. Part-time four-wheel drive mode allows choosing between rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive, full-time four-wheel drive does not allow two-wheel drive mode, and on-demand four-wheel drive is generally in front-wheel drive mode.

What does rear mean on a car?

Rear on a car refers to the rear windshield defogging function. Pressing the rear button can remove the fog on the rear windshield. The rear windshield defogging function mainly relies on the principle of heating with resistance wires to defog. Typically, the rear defogger switch will automatically turn off after about ten minutes of operation. If the defogging effect is not ideal after turning on the rear defogger, it may be due to aging from prolonged use. In addition to the rear button, there is also a front button, which is for the front windshield defrosting. Features like "rear" are generally not available in most cars; only the front windshield defogging button is common. This function can only be seen in some high-end cars.
