All kinds of makes and models promote their unique features. Some may highlight front-wheel drive while other manufacturers note a model rides with rear-wheel drive. At New South Ford, car shoppers can look over RWD and FWD models alike. Some may wonder what the main differences are. Here’s a brief overview.
Rear-wheel drive might be preferable to drives who need to tow things. Cargo and trailer hitches require towing power, and an RWD model may deliver the necessary strength to handle things. Also, RWD vehicles may accelerate faster. Drivers who like sportier models could gravitate towards RWD vehicles.
Front-wheel drive vehicles could present better traction, making them preferable for hilly and slippery areas. These vehicles may be lighter than RWD models, so expect better gas mileage in Meridian, MS. The models also come with more rear-seating legroom.
