Correct answer
- ALa potencia del motor se transmite a las ruedas delanteras.The engine power is transmitted to the front wheels.
In front-wheel drive vehicles, the engine's power is transmitted to the front wheels. This means that steering and traction are mainly handled by these wheels, which gives better manoeuvrability and grip on the road. According to the General Vehicle Regulations, vehicles are classified by their type of drive, and for front-wheel drive vehicles this feature is essential to how they perform on the road.
