What is the wheelbase distance?
1 Answers
Wheelbase refers to the distance between the front axle and the rear axle of a vehicle, serving as an indicator of the car's steering performance and rear-seat comfort. Theoretically, a longer wheelbase results in better legroom for rear passengers, though this is a relative perspective that also depends on the vehicle model, series, and actual conditions. Some foreign cars introduced to China may have their wheelbase and other technical parameters adjusted to accommodate Chinese road conditions. The wheelbase is measured as the distance between the centers of the front and rear axles on the same side of the vehicle, perpendicular to the longitudinal symmetry plane of the vehicle. Simply put, it's the distance from the center of the front axle to the center of the rear axle.
