Drive type | |||
| Wheel drive type: | Rear wheel drive (RWD) | Front wheel drive (FWD) | |
| Front-wheel drive cars (Hyundai Coupe) have better traction on slippery roads and when climbing hills, better fuel economy, and are less expensive to purchase. On the disadvantage side, FWD cars usually have less towing capacity, poorer acceleration and harder handling. Rear-wheel drive cars (Chrysler Crossfire) have better handling on dry roads, better acceleration, more even weight distribution and more fun to drive. RWD is also better for towing large loads. The cons of rear-wheel drive are less interior and trunk space and more difficulty maneuvering in wet and snowy conditions. | |||
Engines | |||
| Average engine lifespan: | 480'000 km | 400'000 km | |

| Engine spread: | Installed on at least 8 other car models, including Mercedes C klase, Mercedes E klase, Mercedes ML | Installed on at least 7 other car models, including Kia Sportage, Kia Ceed, Hyundai Sonata, Hyundai Tucson, Hyundai Elantra | |
| In general, the longer and for more car models an engine is produced, the better its serviceability and availability of spare parts. Chrysler Crossfire might be a better choice in this respect. | |||
| Hydraulic tappets: | yes | no | |
| The Chrysler Crossfire engine has hydraulic tappets (lifters), providing quieter operation and no need for periodic adjustment, but they are more complex in design and can cause serious engine damage in case of failure. | |||
