What are fr cars?

A front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout (FR) is an automotive design with an engine in front and rear-wheel-drive, connected via a drive shaft.

Do you know the difference between the two? Let’s delve into the topic here!

An FF car is a car that uses a front engine/front-wheel drive (FF) configuration. In this setup, the engine is located at the front of the vehicle and drives the front wheels.

It is commonly found in many passenger cars.

One advantage of the FF system is that the body is lightweight because there is no need for a propeller shaft. A propeller shaft is a shaft that transfers power generated by the engine to other parts of the car. In the FF configuration, since the engine is in front and directly powers the front wheels, there is no need for a propeller shaft. Additionally, this absence of a propeller shaft increases space and improves comfort. Furthermore, since the load is applied to the front, the vehicle’s body is stabilized, making front-wheel drive cars recommended for beginners.

One disadvantage of FF cars is that since both “running” and “turning” are performed with the front wheels, a heavy burden is placed on them. This makes them less suitable for sporty driving.

A front engine/rear-wheel drive (FR) car has the engine placed in the front of the body, and the power is sent to the rear wheels through the propeller shaft to drive them.
