Why Doesn't Audi Produce Rear-Wheel Drive Cars?
1 Answers
Audi's Quattro all-wheel drive system was born, transitioning directly from front-wheel drive to all-wheel drive. Introduction to All-Wheel Drive: All-wheel drive refers to a vehicle maintaining four-wheel drive throughout the entire driving process. The engine's output torque is distributed to the front and rear wheels in a fixed ratio. This driving mode ensures good off-road and handling performance at all times, but it cannot adjust torque distribution based on road conditions and has relatively high fuel consumption. Part-Time Four-Wheel Drive: Part-time four-wheel drive is a system where the driver can manually choose between two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive. By engaging or disengaging the transfer case according to driving needs, the purpose of switching between two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive is achieved. This is also the most common four-wheel drive system for off-road vehicles or SUVs with four-wheel drive capabilities.
