Yes.
#1, a front wheel drive transverse transmission also contains the differential assembly.
An electric fan is needed on front-wheel drive cars
A rear wheel drive vehicle transmission has everything in a straight line . A Transverse mounted transmission has the gears made after the torque convertor at a 90 degree angle. (L shaped)
More weight over the drive wheels = better traction with front wheel drive.
It's actually four wheel drive, but uses a transverse engine with a transaxle... it's basically a front wheel drive vehicle plus a transfer case.
Yes. The Passat has always been a front wheel drive car (though some models had the option of a synchronized four wheel drive) with a transverse engine and transaxle.
Either a transverse engine for front wheel drive cars (and the occasional rear engine, rear wheel drive car), or a longitudinal engine for front/mid-engine, rear wheel drive cars.
Front wheel drive, with some being all wheel drive.Front wheel drive, with some being all wheel drive.
No, as this is not a disease that directly impairs your ability to drive.
Front-wheel-drive in most cases, All-wheel-drive in some cases, Rear-wheel-drive in very few cases. AWD (e.g. Mitsu EVO, etc) RWD (e.g. NSX, yes mid-engined, but still transverse)
No, There are, rear engine, mid engine and all wheel drive applications as well
No, not feasibly. Front wheel drive cars typically have a transverse engine (as opposed to a longitudinal engine found in rear wheel drive cars) and a transmission with a different output location that that found on a rear wheel drive car... I won't say such a conversion is impossible, but it's highly impractical.
