According to the official introduction of SAIC Volkswagen, the entire Lavida series uses front-wheel drive, which is also the most commonly used drive form on the market.

The front-wheel drive system has a relatively low manufacturing cost, occupies a relatively small space, has a relatively low failure rate, and has a relatively low cost in later repair and maintenance, so it is installed on most vehicles.
