“Front-Wheel Drive” S2K’s and NSX’s were RWD ( ° ʖ °)
I think the ad is a couple years out of date.
You have a keen eye for the obvious
Other then the traction nothing else seems to be a problem. The 1st time I drove a rwd was life changing for me, Honda is just too cheap to do rwd, unless they’re feeling inspired.
Being cheap at some parts can mean you put more into others.
Also valid for French cars for the same reasons.
“Front-wheel drive puts more of the weight on the front wheels. That means better traction.” Sounds legit.
It’s true. Most FWD cars are quicker of the line than RWD with the same power.
Ofcourse this is for normal speeds, not racing speeds. In a “normal” car rear wheel drive is almost pointless.
This is just sad :(
“And since the driving power is applied in the direction the car is being steered, it helps you through the turn.” Did they ever think about understeer??
Apparently not, but that’s a thing of the past now.
Doesn’t happen at normal speeds.
My mom had a Civic from the ‘70s. Absolutely horrid car. The Honda of today are much, much better.
Pfft! want a true FWD company go saab 100% of cars ever made, EVER! is FWD ;)
Saab 92x?
“The Accord. Our luxury car.” I wouldnt agree with that…
well the accord was their flagship car at the time (i think)
The Accord is their luxury car though. In America, the European accords are sold under the “””””””””luxurious”””””””””” Acura brand as the TSX.
