The Suzuki Ignis 1.2 MT is a mini five-door from the third generation, and the notes below look at how its front-wheel-drive layout puts the same tyres in charge of both turning and pulling away.

Type of boost?
A turbocharger or supercharger compresses the air entering the engine so a smaller engine can produce more power. Naturally aspirated engines draw air without a compressor. Glossary entry
Not provided
Type of drive?
Which wheels receive power: front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. All-wheel drive can send power to every wheel for extra traction. Glossary entry
FWD
Bore and stroke?
The diameter of a cylinder (bore) and the distance the piston travels inside it (stroke). Together they determine the displacement of the engine. Glossary entry
Not provided
Engine capacity?
The total volume swept by all pistons inside the cylinders, usually stated in cubic centimetres or litres. Larger displacement often means more power but higher consumption. Glossary entry
1197 cm³
Engine location
Front, transverse
Number of gears?
How many fixed forward ratios a gearbox offers. More gears can improve economy and refinement; continuously variable transmissions have no fixed steps. Glossary entry
5
Maximum power?
A unit of engine or motor output. One metric horsepower is about 0.735 kilowatts. Peak power is normally reached at high engine speed. Glossary entry
83 hp
Maximum power, kw?
A unit of engine or motor output. One metric horsepower is about 0.735 kilowatts. Peak power is normally reached at high engine speed. Glossary entry
61 kW
Compression ratio?
The ratio between the largest and smallest volume of a cylinder as the piston moves. Higher ratios improve efficiency but may require higher-octane fuel. Glossary entry

Engine and Transmission
A gasoline engine relies on a spark to ignite a pre-mixed charge of fuel and air, so the burn begins at a chosen moment rather than from compression heat alone. With front-wheel drive, that combustion energy travels only a short path to the driven axle.
Drivetrain and Everyday Driving
Each tyre has one budget of grip to spend, and traction and cornering force draw from the same account. On a front-wheel-drive car the front tyres do both jobs, so asking for strong acceleration mid-bend leaves less grip available for steering.
Body and Practicality
A five-door body gives rear passengers their own openings, so nobody has to climb past a tilted front seat. On a mini footprint those rear doors are necessarily short, which keeps the swing modest in tight parking bays.
