Why is the Wuling Hongguang rear-wheel drive?
1 Answers
Wuling Hongguang is rear-wheel drive for the following reasons: The Wuling Hongguang is a microvan, and microvans need to carry cargo. If front-wheel drive were used, the front wheels' grip would decrease when carrying heavy loads in the rear, leading to insufficient driving force. Therefore, microvans, trucks, and large buses typically adopt rear-wheel drive. Differences between rear-wheel drive and front-wheel drive vehicles: 1. Different driving methods: Rear-wheel drive vehicles are pushed by the engine, while front-wheel drive is more like being pulled by the engine. 2. Different engine layouts: Rear-wheel drive vehicles have the engine placed at the front, transmitting power to the rear wheels via a driveshaft, utilizing a rear-wheel drive design. Front-wheel drive vehicles usually have the engine transversely mounted at the front wheel position, adopting a front-wheel drive design.
