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.
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)
Front wheel drive, with some being all wheel drive.Front wheel drive, with some being all wheel drive.
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.
