Classification by Drive Method

Vehicles can be classified by the position of the
engine and drive wheels, and the number of drive
wheels.
FF (Front-engine, Front-drive)
Because a FF vehicle does not have a propeller
shaft, a spacious interior can be realized, thus
achieving excellent comfort.
FR (Front-engine, Rear-drive)
Because a FR vehicle has a good weight
balance, it excels in controllability and stability.
MR (Midship-engine, Rear-drive)
Because a MR vehicle has a good weight
balance on the front and rear axles, it excels in
controllability.
4WD (4-Wheels Drive)
Because a 4WD vehicle drives with four
wheels, it can operate under poor conditions in
a stable manner. Its weight is greater than that
of other types of vehicles.
