Why do some cars have their engines in the front and some in the back, what are the advantages and disadvantages of the two builds. And why doesn’t every car have full wheel drive?

    That is interesting!

    I’d have expected that adding weight on the axle that has drive would improve traction (but affect steering negatively)

    Also i guess that the answer does not take into account who uses the car or when. I guess in racing, awd would be awesome if it wasn’t too heavy, complicated and used a lot of fuel
