Is the Mazda Atenza a Front-Wheel Drive or Rear-Wheel Drive Car?
1 Answers
Mazda Atenza is a front-engine, front-wheel-drive (FF) vehicle. I. Advantages of FF layout: Simple mechanical structure, good engine cooling conditions, spacious interior, easy layout, reduced overall vehicle weight, fuel-efficient, and convenient for maintenance. II. Disadvantages: Since the front wheels handle both steering and driving, high-speed stability is relatively poor, the drive wheels are prone to slipping when climbing, and the vehicle is more likely to roll over when descending at high speeds. More details about the Mazda Atenza are as follows: 1. The Mazda Atenza is equipped with two engines: a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine and a 2.5-liter naturally aspirated engine. Both engines feature Mazda's Skyactiv technology. 2. The 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine has a maximum power output of 116 kW and a maximum torque of 202 Nm. This engine delivers peak torque at 4,000 rpm and peak power at 6,400 rpm. It is equipped with a dual variable valve timing control system and is paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission (6AT). 3. The 2.5-liter naturally aspirated engine has a maximum power output of 141 kW and a maximum torque of 252 Nm. This engine delivers peak torque from 3,250 rpm and peak power at 6,100 rpm. It is also equipped with a dual variable valve timing system and is paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission (6AT). 4. The Mazda Atenza features a MacPherson independent front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension. The multi-link independent suspension improves wheel contact with the ground, enhancing traction, which in turn improves the vehicle's handling and comfort.
