front wheel drive
In a front wheel drive car, the wheels at the front do all the work of moving the car. This makes it easier to handle and usually saves fuel.
Front wheel drive (FWD) means the engine’s power is delivered to the front wheels only, which is common in many passenger cars for better traction and fuel efficiency.
