AWD would really be the best of both worlds..the problem with
FWD is laying down all the power from the engine onto the road..as
you know, when a car accelerates, the front of the car will lift
up, so when you accelerate hard in a FWD car, the front of the car
lifts up and the front tires cant get enough grip, thus FWD cars
can't put all the power onto the road efficiently as compared to a
RWD car..the backside of a car squats when you accelerate away,
thus when a RWD accelerates, the rear tires actually generates more
grip due to physics..and thus a RWD accelerates off better than a
FWD, especially in the wet..
AWD/4WD is good because any wheels can move, and thus 4WD cars have
very good grip..the 4WD system will distribute power to the
grippiest tires and thus ensuring good grip and stability..
RWD or AWD would still be the preferred mode of mobility for the
car because these layouts provide better control of the car if you
are an experienced driver..FWD has less skeletons in the closet,
but it's taxing on the front axle to provide both driving and
steering function..
