Why Do Luxury Cars Place the Battery in the Trunk?
1 Answers
Luxury cars place the battery in the trunk to balance the front and rear weight distribution of the vehicle. Positioning the battery at the rear helps prevent the front from becoming too heavy. If the front is too heavy, it can negatively impact the car's handling. Most luxury cars feature front-engine, rear-wheel-drive configurations, and many achieve a near-perfect 50:50 weight distribution between the front and rear. Additional information about car batteries is as follows: 1. The battery is a crucial component in a car; without it, the vehicle cannot operate normally. 2. When the engine is not running, the battery supplies power to all the electronic devices in the car.
