Front-engine, Rear-wheel Drive (FR) is a traditional drivetrain layout. Its advantages lie in the front and rear wheels performing different functions, with steering and drive separated, thus offering good high-speed stability, strong climbing ability, and excellent handling.
However, this drivetrain layout has some drawbacks, for example, power must be transmitted from the front-mounted engine to the rear wheels via a driveshaft, resulting in a hump in the middle of the cabin floor, which affects interior space and layout, and also increases vehicle weight and power transmission loss.
