The drive train of a motor vehicle is the group of components that deliver power to the driving wheels. This excludes the engine or motor that generates the power. In contrast, the power train is considered to include both the engine or motor and the drive train. The drive train transfers turning force from the engine crankshaft to the drive wheels. Drive train configurations vary, depending on vehicle design.The most common drive train configurations are front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive.
