For the northeast, is the rear drive that terrible?

There is more rain and snow in the northeast, and the rear drive is not so terrible. Drive slowly.

The advantages and disadvantages of rear wheel drive are as follows:

Advantages:

The front/back weight distribution is more uniform and reasonable, and the operation is more sensitive;

Due to the scattered distribution of equipment (such as gearbox, drive axle, etc.). ), the maintenance is more convenient;

Because the front wheel only plays the role of steering, the tire wears less.

Disadvantages:

If there is no complicated and advanced electronic control system (such as ABS, ASR, etc. ), the traction and stability of wet pavement are poor;

The driving axle runs through the front and rear, reducing the space for members and goods;

The driving structure is complex, the weight is increased and the cost is higher.

Rear wheel drive:

Advantages:

More components and cargo space can be obtained (there is no through transmission shaft);

Because the structure is more compact, the weight can be reduced and the fuel economy is better;

The center of gravity of front-wheel-driven vehicles moves forward, mainly concentrated on the driving wheels, which can improve the traction on wet roads.

Disadvantages:

Increase the wear of front tires and suspension;

The narrow engine compartment increases the difficulty of maintenance;

The front wheel integrates steering and driving, which will lead to oversteering, thus making the control more unpredictable;

When going uphill, reduce the traction of wet roads.

Abstract: Modern luxury cars are equipped with many electronic control devices, such as ABS, ASR, TCS, EDS, ESP and other safety devices. In fact, the traction control of front and rear drive vehicles is similar to that of all kinds of wet roads.
