Why does Volkswagen have a rear seat hump?
1 Answers
Volkswagen rear seat hump reasons: Many cars have a raised section in the rear floor, this hump is designed to accommodate the exhaust pipe, and the central body hump can also enhance body rigidity. Many front-wheel-drive vehicles have a slight rear floor hump mainly to house the exhaust system. The protrusion in front-wheel-drive cars isn't very pronounced, whereas many rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive vehicles feature significantly higher rear floor humps. Rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive cars have a driveshaft running through the center of the vehicle body. The central hump in the rear floor not only accommodates the exhaust pipe but also must house the driveshaft, resulting in a more substantial elevation.
