What are the differences between standard wheelbase and long wheelbase?
1 Answers
The differences between standard wheelbase and long wheelbase are as follows: 1. Interior space: The longer the wheelbase, the larger the passenger space inside the car, resulting in a more spacious feeling (mainly reflected in the rear seating area). However, it's important to note that wheelbase is not directly related to ride comfort, which depends more on the tuning of the suspension's softness and rebound. 2. Stability: With an extended wheelbase, the vehicle's weight will inevitably increase, which correspondingly improves stability at high speeds. 3. Maneuverability: As the wheelbase increases, the turning radius of the vehicle will also increase, reducing the ease of turning or making U-turns, thereby affecting overall maneuverability. 4. Handling: For the same car model, the shorter the wheelbase, the better the handling, and the stronger the overall rigidity of the vehicle. During driving, the rear end follows more responsively.
