Question: what does 4 x 2 in cars mean?
Answer: On a 4x2 drivetrain vehicle, only two of the wheels are being given torque. This can either be given to the front wheel axis or the rear wheel axis. You may have heard of the terms Front-Wheel Drive(FWD) and Rear-Wheel Drive(RWD). ... All-Wheel Drive(AWD) and Four-Wheel Drive(4WD) are 4x4 drivetrains.
