The real question is: why not a cart before the horse?

I think it has some real advantages. Rides smoother than a saddle (as long as it’s on a road), Wouldn’t need reins to steer, and while it would be less stable in a straight line, it would likely be more agile and easier to control in in crowded streets. Plus, you wouldn’t be pooped on.

Do you mean the NSX because that would technically be AWD?

AMG GT is actually mid engined. Engine sits behind the front axle.

I always thought that was exactly why VW and Porsche put the motors in the back....to prevent people from getting pooped on.

I think they call it RMR. The second r is the drive type
