Why a lot of sports car engine is rear?
That is the weight of the problem can not be said that the rear point is the exact point of the engine can do so to achieve the best weight so that the car's performance to achieve the best ideally, we generally said that the first 4 after 6 before 40% after 60% Of the counterweight but because the engine on the rear of the vehicle in the practical space will inevitably be greatly reduced so the basic will only appear in the high-end sports car
To the market only RR car Porsche 911, for example, the official announcement of the car before and after the weight ratio is 39:61, almost equal to a reverse of the FF car, and MR car weight ratio is more uniform, Porsche Boxster 46: 54, Ferrari 360 Modena is 43:57. Although some depots appreciate the FR car can do 50:50 car weight ratio, control is also more handy, but from the accelerated point of view, or the first light weight of the MR and RR the most favorable, for the weight ratio before and after Possibly small, the sports car will use the head narrow tail width of the body design and the use of relatively thick rear wheels.
