What does FF mean in cars?
1 Answers
FF in cars stands for Front-engine, Front-wheel drive, which is used by most family cars. Advantages of Front-engine, Front-wheel drive: Eliminates the need for a driveshaft, reducing vehicle weight and making the structure more compact; effectively utilizes the engine compartment space, providing a more spacious cabin and helping to lower the floor height, thereby improving ride comfort. Disadvantages of Front-engine, Front-wheel drive: During startup, acceleration, or climbing, the front wheel load decreases, leading to reduced traction; the front axle serves as both the steering axle and the drive axle, resulting in a complex structure and manufacturing process, higher production costs, and difficult maintenance.
