AWD vs. FWD: What’s the difference?
There are some differences between all-wheel-drive (AWD) and front-wheel drive. Do you know them? The main difference when comparing AWD vs. FWD is where the engine sends power. The techs at the Chevrolet dealership in Glencoe need to know this difference as there are plenty of AWD vehicles in the Chevy lineup.
In FWD vehicles, only one axle holds a connection to the car's engine. In an AWD vehicle, both axles are connected through gears or chains that allow for smoother driving conditions on rough surfaces like ice or snow.
