The difficulty of access since there are lots of stacked parts at the front of the vehicle. The vehicle might be harder to work on & You need to spend more on mechanical labor for some service repairs and items.
- 7. The front-wheel-drive provides better traction when climbing the hills because the load of the engine is poised over the front wheels. The front-wheel-drive prevents the need for a space-consuming driveline hump which runs down in the middle of the car’s interior floor. ADVANTAGES
- 8. 2 - REAR WHEEL DRIVE For the rear wheel drive, the ones doing the work are the rear wheels. • Rear wheels are responsible for pushing the car. • Front wheels are responsible for the steering. With this design, there is more even distribution of the parts and weight across the vehicle, making the car more balanced and easier to maneuver.

Some 4-wheel drive systems have low or high gear range. The low gear range is utilized to increase the climbing power at low speed.
- 14. Cars with shifting wheel drive designs are called all-wheel drive. This design has additional control and power, getting better traction compared to vehicles with 2WD in any condition. All-wheel Drive2 Helpful when driving over moderate off-road terrain and on sloppy road conditions, through sand, mud, and any other loose surfaces.
- 15. DRAWBACKS ► In 4WD, all the wheels are powered, which means cars with 4WD are comprised of more parts that make it a lot heavier compared to their two-wheel drive counterparts. ► 4WD cars are more challenging to operate, burn more fuel, more expensive purchase, and also requires more expensive service compared to the 2WD cars.
