A front wheel drive vehicle is only driven with the front wheels. It will have a transmission in the front with drive lines attached. A two wheel drive vehicle is any vehicle that is only driven by two wheels. It can be a front or rear wheel vehicle. For instance. My Dodge ram 1500 v6 is two wheel drive from the rear. An Oldsmobile cutlas cirea is two wheel drive but in the front. I hope this helped.

AWD = All Wheel Drive FWD = Front Wheel Drive
In front wheel drive the traction comes from the front wheels while in rear wheel drive traction power comes from the rear wheels.
Which wheels provide motive power.
two wheel drive front end sits lower to the ground
Fleetwood Brougham is rear wheel drive. Cadillac Fleetwood is front wheel drive
The power is being routed to either the front or the rears. I believe that the front wheel drive is more commuter car friendly and the rear wheel drive leans a little toward sporty/performance based cars.
That is an old style of saying that a wheel is low offset rear w/drive like a old car or hi offset front w/drive like a new honda civic.
Difference between Front End Loader and Wheel Loader
No, Only The transmission is different.
2 wheel drive or 4 wheel drive? It makes a difference.
To get a car to move the power from the engine has to be transferred to at least two of the cars wheels on the same axle. If these two wheels are at the front then the car is a front wheel drive, if the two wheels are at the back then it is a rear wheel drive. Some modern cars however now have mechanisms that deliver power to all four of the wheels at once, this is a four wheel or all wheel drive.
More weight over the drive wheels = better traction with front wheel drive.
