What is the difference between a long wheelbase and a short wheelbase?
1 Answers
The differences between a long wheelbase and a short wheelbase are: 1. Different exterior dimensions: long wheelbase offers more space; short wheelbase offers less space. 2. Different wheelbases: long wheelbase has a larger wheelbase; short wheelbase has a smaller wheelbase. 3. Different rear seat space: long wheelbase provides more rear seat space; short wheelbase provides less rear seat space. Short wheelbase models generally have better handling than long wheelbase models because they are lighter and have a smaller wheelbase, making them easier to control. The long wheelbase is the longest line segment obtained by connecting two points on an ellipse, i.e., the line segment passing through the two focal points and terminating at the ellipse. The short wheelbase is the line connecting the two closer vertices of the ellipse, perpendicularly bisecting the long wheelbase, and is relative to the long wheelbase of the ellipse.
