Automotive Powertrain
Automotive powertrain also called the power plant, consists of those parts or components that conduct the vehicle's power from the original source of energy to the surface of the road. In most modern vehicles, the powertrain includes the engine, transmission, drive shaft, differentials and what is known as the final drive.
Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Automotive powertrain also called the power plant, consists of those parts or components that conduct the vehicle's power from the original source of energy to the surface of the road. In most modern vehicles, the powertrain includes the engine, transmission, drive shaft, differentials and what is known as the final drive.
In automotive terms, the powertrain (also frequently called the "running gear" in this context), combined with the frame of the vehicle, forms the chassis. When the engine and transmission are removed from the powertrain, the remainder is what the automotive industry commonly refers to as the driveline or drivetrain.
Automotive Powertrain is a system of mechanical parts in a vehicle that first produces energy, then converts it in order to propel it, whether it be an automobile, boat or other machinery. The basic Components it may include are：
- Engine
- Transmission
- Drive Shafts
