my guess is it come standard with FWD and have an optional AWD system... Q30x ? I just hope the AWD tech is like the CLA where it splits power to front and back wheels enough that it doesn't feel FWD biased, as some would think.Is the 2.5L engine that is mentioned likely what is going to happen?
So is this car going to be front wheel drive?
Yeah the Q30 will be sharing the same platform as Mercedes which is known as the MFA platform. It is said that the platform directly under pins the A and B class.We know it will be based on a Mercedes Platform which I believe the Mercedes CLA and GLA ride on.
Why wouldn't they though make it an all wheel drive from the get go? It make sense to doesn't it?It is possible we might see the Q30 as an all wheel drive since the engine is already seen in the JX (QX 60). There is enough power to make it an awd but the question is will they for this luxury compact?
it'll be likely cost. Why make people pay for AWD if they don't need it?Why wouldn't they though make it an all wheel drive from the get go? It make sense to doesn't it?
and not everyone wants to over pay for parts and service like all german vehicle owners doIf you can understand what infiniti is trying to do here with the q30. They are trying to have a compact that targets vehicles like the audi a3 as a competitor. If they make the Q30 as a fwd then give the option of awd they already have more fire power against audi. Not everyone wants awd so make it an option right.
didn't all the GLKs come in 4matic....Does the GLK come in AWD?
i think the fact that the gla will come with 4matic doesn't mean the Q30 will have itsorry I meant GLA.
It does come in 4Matic so that means there is a chance the Q30 could come with AWD.
