MEV321 Chapter 1

What is the primary function of a power train system in a vehicle?

• To control the air conditioning

• To provide structural support

• To transfer power from the engine to the wheels

• To adjust the suspension

Which component of the power train system is responsible for generating power in a vehicle?

• Transmission

• Engine

• Axles

• Brakes

In a front-wheel drive (FWD) vehicle, where is the power delivered to the wheels?

• Rear wheels

• All wheels simultaneously

• Front wheels

• All wheels intermittently

Which of the following is a key advantage of rear-wheel drive (RWD) vehicles?

• Better traction in slippery conditions

• Improved fuel efficiency

• Easier steering and maneuverability

• Reduced wear on front tires

All-wheel drive (AWD) vehicles typically provide power to which wheels?

• Rear wheels

• Front wheels

• Both front and rear wheels simultaneously

• Left front and right rear wheels

Four-wheel drive (4WD) is commonly found in which types of vehicles?

• Sports cars

• Sedans

• Off-road and trucks

• Electric vehicles

Which drive train type is often preferred for high-performance cars?

• Rear-wheel drive (RWD)

• Four-wheel drive (4WD)

• Front-wheel drive (FWD)

• All-wheel drive (AWD)

What is the main benefit of all-wheel drive (AWD) systems in terms of traction?

• Provides the best traction in all conditions

• Only works well in dry conditions

• Only benefits front wheels

• Offers no traction advantages

In a four-wheel drive (4WD) system, when should you engage all four wheels for maximum traction?

• Only in extreme off-road conditions

• Always, for optimal fuel efficiency

• Only on the highway

• Never, as it's not necessary

Which type of drive train system is often chosen for better control and stability on slippery or uneven surfaces?

• Rear-wheel drive (RWD)

• Front-wheel drive (FWD)

• Four-wheel drive (4WD)

• All-wheel drive (AWD)
