Where is the engine located in a four-wheel drive vehicle?
1 Answers
The engine of a four-wheel drive vehicle is located at the front. Vehicles with engines at the rear are rear-wheel drive cars, and most vehicles have their engines in the front engine compartment. Definition of a four-wheel drive vehicle: A four-wheel drive vehicle is one with front and rear differential-linked four-wheel drive. Since the engine power is transmitted to all four wheels, all four wheels can provide traction. In a regular two-wheel drive vehicle, if one of the drive wheels slips, the other drive wheels also lose power. Drive configuration of a four-wheel drive vehicle: The so-called drive configuration refers to the arrangement of the engine and the number and position of the drive wheels. Most passenger vehicles have two rows of wheels, front and rear. The wheels that are directly driven by the engine to propel (or pull) the vehicle forward are the drive wheels.
