What is a Drivetrain & Powertrain?
Simply put, a drivetrain is a series of parts in your car that work together to make your wheels turn. A powertrain, on the other hand, is basically a drivetrain plus the engine and some other parts,
1) Front-Wheel Drive (FWD):
Front-wheel drive refers to a car where the transmission sends the engine’s power to the front wheels. Rear-wheel drive is the transmission that sends the engine’s power to the rear wheels. Four-and all-wheel drive cars have power at all four corners.
If a vehicle features front-wheel drive, the transmission transfers power from the engine to the front wheels. The majority of cars today have a front-wheel-drive layout. This setup transfers power to the front wheels, allowing them to move and steer the vehicle.
2) Rear Wheel Drive (RWD):
Rear-wheel drive is basically the opposite of FRONT-wheel drive. This drive is most commonly found on sports cars and performance sedans. Vehicles that feature rear-wheel drive are a bit more complicated. Vehicles handle much better than front-wheel drive vehicles, and you will notice the difference in curves, turns, and when navigating through traffic situations.
3) 4-Wheel Drive (4WD):
Four-wheel drive, often abbreviated as 4WD, 4WD means the power from the engine is delivered to all 4 wheels all of the time when Four-by-Fours(4x4) is engaged. The 4WD vehicles are usually equipped with a transfer case which allows the car to change to RWD transmission to save fuel and get back to 4WD mode if and when required.
4) All Wheel Drive (AWD):
An all-wheel-drive arrangement works on the same principle as 4WD, but in most front-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive is the primary drive mode. The general misconception is that AWD and 4×4 are the same things. While both have all 4 wheels running and run on the same principles, some key differences set the two apart.

as a jeep owner i wanted to say one often overlooked disadvantage of a 4wd car is that all 4 wheels have to be the same diameter, that means if you get a nail in the sidewall on a jeep or range rover you have to change all 4 tires, not just an axle, many people dont know this and jeep gets a bad rep for transmission reliability because many people screw this up, if you only change one axles tires while the other axle is half worn it will run fine for about 8-16 months, than your transfer case will leave the chat, (and sadly to properly fix it you will have to throw away those two tires and buy 4 more tires totaling 6 tires since the nail)

I like FWD because it is the best for improving technique and daily use (more economical). It can be beneficial even if you plan on driving RWD or AWD in a performance setting because FWD isn't ideal for putting power down and/or steering. This added difficulty forces you to learn proper driving technique to be fast and efficient rather than using ideal drivetrains as a crutch. Then when you get into a RWD or AWD, you will absolutely haul ass because you are fast, not just the car. It is a lot cheaper to learn to drive well in FWD and put in the seat time than it is to immediately jump into RWD and AWD cars that immediately begin draining your finances. If you've ever played any Gran Turismo game, you know they start you off in FWD cars. They do it because they too understand the FWD handicap makes you better. Just my two cents as a former driving instructor, practicing driving enthusiast. 👍

And you probably have no idea what any of this means without looking it up... Try some track time or at minimum, drive in a few SCCA events even if they are parking lot cone events. Even with professional levels of left foot braking and trail braking, a FWD car will never balance like the 50/50 weight distribution of RWD or some AWD cars (Audi with Torsen but not Haldex AWD). NEVER. Learning FWD advanced driving is great for driving FWD, but that's it! FWD cars have to be driven differently than RWD or rear weight and power biased AWD for the most spirited of driving.

The advantage of FWD is that the rear usually does not swerving rear end. In extreme situations, the vehicles tend to understeer, i.e. to push over the front wheels. This is often better compensated for by the driver than a swerving rear end. In addition, FWD saves space. With RWD, when the engine is in the front, there is no load on the drive wheels. When the engine is at the rear, the RWD becomes a swerving rear end. The driver has to switch from turning in to countersteering. With RWD, the tunnel drive runs straight through the passenger compartment.

Calm down, that's the classical transfer case for SUV and pickups wich can't be called AWD. It's a more unversal 4WD with an added center differential. Even BMW it's using one in their pseudo AWD which is still using a transfer case but already with a permanently engaged clutch pack at a variable proportion. Drawback - isn't giving up a single degree on rear axle like torsen do, in contrary it's pushing the front wheels into the corner within actual clutch torque limit making it drift even when isn't required trough a hard acceleration because even a light acceleration adds up to the interaxial tension provoking a difficult to control skid at medium speeds like in freeway entry.

Every drivetrain has it's own advantages and disadvantages. FWD: - PROS: cheapest to produce, most efficient, most interior space, more traction compared to RWD thanks to engine weight on driven wheels, very practical, safer than RWD because transverse engine allows longer crumple zone and understeer is a little safer than oversteer - CONS: uneven tire wear, front wheels do most of the work, torque steer, difficult to fit a large engine transversly, front suspension is prone to more damage due to the additional weight RWD - PROS: the best weight distribution, can be more fun to drive, allows to fit a larger engine, better traction under hard acceleration, a bit more space in the engine bay (sometimes) - CONS: rear leg space is worse beacuse of transmission tunnel, fuel efficiency is worse than FWD (more drivetrain losses), more expensive to produce, longtudinal engine reduce lenght of crumple zone (this is why Volvo uses transverse engines) AWD - PROS: twice more traction than FWD or RWD, safer handling in slippery conditions, weight distribution is better than FWD, best for offroad, best for snow and mud - CONS: most expensive to produce and maintain, worst fuel efficiency, adds more weight to the car CONCLUSION: FWD is good for family cars, economy cars and light commersial vehicles. RWD is good for large luxury cars, sport cars AWD is good for SUV's, some sport cars and some family cars The majority of cars on the roads are FWD. Their percentage is going up every year, even BMW is switching to FWD. It is simply the most cost effective and practical. Most drivers don't care all that much about handling at high speed. A lot of stupid drivers don't even know what is the layout of their car...

There are so many variations of awd, it would take a long time to describe them all. My awd is normally fwd, but if the computer detects a front wheel slipping in snow for example, it will then engage the awd, once all wheels have traction, the awd turns off. I also have a button to turn off traction control and just stay in fwd but there is no benefit in doing so.

I'm from England and was used to driving in all conditions. I also used to do a lot of car rallying, mostly which was off road on different loose surfaces in rain, snow and whatever mother nature could throw at us. The drive of choice and the most successful was rear wheel drive until all wheel drive came into use in the early 1980's. I have driven cars in rallies with all the different drives including Mini Cooper S, Ford Escort Twin Cam, Lancia Fulvia 1.6 HF and Peugeot 205GTI. Audi Quattro. MY choice before all wheel drive was rear wheel drive. Generally like the majority of rally drivers I found oversteer from wheel drive more controllable and getting more power to the drive wheels was an easier engineering task. In reality the difference may be solely in technique of driving. For normal road use and poor conditions I think all wheel drive is best, providing traction to all wheels without gadgets such as diff locks etc, of 4X4 is better for most users. FWD is more expensive to maintain than RWD . FWD allows more interior space and a flatter floor pan.

Regardless of AWD or 4WD, people need to get it through their heads that 4WD and AWD don't necessarily make it "safer" to drive in bad conditions (snow/rain). Especially in snow, those can HELP you if you get stuck or help prevent slipping, but you still have to abide by the same "rules" even owners with FWD and RWD vehicles do.... keep your speed reasonable for conditions and don't make any quick reactions (slamming on the brakes for example or swerving) especially in snowy conditions. AWD and 4WD mainly help you keep control if you do start to slip but I've drive FWD cars for a long time and really the biggest thing there (in snowy conditions) is to add weight to the back to even out the weight distribution (also helps on RWD vehicles too). The one system I did like from Chevy was their automatic locking rear differentials, which could cause the rear wheels to lock up and power both wheels evenly (sends power to both wheels) if it detects the truck is slipping. This is a step up from regular RWD but a step down from true AWD or 4WD.

@arucarddimples1944 2 жыл бұрын

Technically it does make it safer and more reliable to drive 4wd or awd in poor conditions. But I know what you mean. It doesn't matter how much go power you have on snow or ice when you can not stop any faster than a fwd or rwd vehicle. Or change the tire traction if turning. You still have to drive with common sense appropiate for the road conditions. Some people get out and think they're in a tank when its basically the same vehicle.

@kevinparsons7538 Жыл бұрын

In a typical 4x4, if you get stuck, you will have one front and one rear wheel spinning and the other two aren't. The locking diff (AKA posi trac) in the rear will power both wheels, which means you have 3 powered wheels. Also, if you have a limited slip diff in the front you have power to all 4 wheels therefore True 4x4. Not a step down from awd, just a different system. Better for offroading because it can take far more abuse.

the main problem with awd is the awd system is very sensitive to changes in tire wear. If your tires are unevenly worn it can cause damage to components in the awd system very easily. You cannot rotate your tires like you can in a fwd or rwd car. You have to replace all tires at the same time to ensure they are all evenly worn. At least with a 4wd (4x4) you only really use the system on loose surfaces where wheel slippage mitigates the stresses place on drive train components.

Like some cars have a system in AWD where it only sends power where needed (Like high-end Subaru's vs low-end) and some other systems have power always going to all wheels. And as for interior space for rear wheel drive cars. I own a jaguar xj8 2007 and xj8 L 2004 (x350) and there's ton of room as its a (rear wheel drive). It always depends on the design of the car. Like some would say the front wheel drive Hyundai Veloster is tight compared to a rear wheel drive Hyundai genesis coupe.

Hello lexus400. Certificate says "3310cc, Automatic, All Wheel Drive (AWD), Petrol-Electric " is said. How do you verify that this is all wheel drive AWD? AWD will also scratch with 4, right?

Good Day, Currently own a M37x 2011 Infiniti. I own that car for 8yr 🚗 in the mid west Ohio and this car is a Beast in all 4 seasons. I am now getting older so I will find my self in a RWD IS350 Lexus. I did my research put some winter tires on it put some weight in the back, Er should be able to be good to go when winter hits Ohio. I want to thank you for this video; this was very important information.

Hello guys, I'm from india. Been following your informative videos recently. So, I'm realtively new to this wonderful channel. These are very good. My main request is please, Could you do a video regarding the, what actually defines "SAFETY" of a car? like explaining & going into details of...Build Quality, Crumple zone, Active & passive safety, ADAS, effectiveness of electronic aids, Safety rating. At present, its the most buring, trending, confusing topic regarding Indian-passenger car market. Right now, TATA built-up its whole spectrum of passenger vehicles, around this "Safety rating" concept. Pls, consider doing a video on this topic.🙏

On the 4X4 section of the video, not all 4X4 vehicles will drive in 4X4, while other 4X4 vehicles will have 1 front and 1 rear wheel spinning while the other 2 wheels do nothing, say right front driver and left rear passenger wheels are spinning and the other right passenger front and left driver rear will not spin at all

@kevinparsons7538 Жыл бұрын

True, but if you have a diff lock for the rear axle and a limited slip diff in the front then you have TRUE 4x4. An awd in this situation would use the ABS system to brake the spinning wheels to force the power to go to the wheels with traction. None of these points were covered in this poorly informed video.

@MrMrremmington Жыл бұрын

There is much greater variation in the system than has been explained. Mercedes 4 Matic, Utilizes computers and the ABS braking systems to manipulate and change power delivery to 1 of 4 wheels Based on feedback from individual wheels performances. As well the system uses ESP, electronic stability program to calculate the speed steering input and intended direction of the car to Intercept spin out and apply breaking towards inside and outside, rear and front wheels when acceleration from the all-wheel-drive system determines mishap. The ESP system can be used on rear drive only and front wheel drive only as well. Lexus uses all wheel drive systems with stability traction control. Similar to Mercedes the computer assesses individual wheel performance redistributing power to wheels that slip through differentials as well as employing anti-locking braking systems to reduce wheel spin for wheels that are not gripping. As well the computer monitors the steering and intended direction of the car when spin out is detected. Acura automobiles employ all Sh-AWD technology. Reportedly working in an X pattern as wheels track differently while cornering. It utilizes computer feedback and we’ll assessing effectiveness for traction similar to the many high-end luxury cars. Each manufacturer can tweak traction and stability with various computer and braking systems. The older four-wheel-drive, locking differential system, can be coordinated with these new computer electronic systems as well which is being seen in the high-end SUV market. I’m wondering if the electric cars are utilizing the same systems as the all wheel drive high-end cars and SUVs? It would make sense everything will be computerized for maximum safety and traction onwards if you can afford it.
