Early <a href="/wiki/Renault" title="Renault">Renault</a> front-driven models such as the <a href="/wiki/Renault_4" title="Renault 4">R4</a>, <a href="/wiki/Renault_5" title="Renault 5">R5</a> Phase I, <a href="/wiki/Renault_12" title="Renault 12">R12</a>, <a href="/wiki/Renault_18" title="Renault 18">R18</a> and certain <a href="/wiki/Renault_21" title="Renault 21">R21</a> models also adopted this layout, as does <a href="/wiki/Audi" title="Audi">Audi</a> to the present day in its midsize models upward. The key disadvantage is packaging; in the case of Audi, which mounts the power unit ahead of the front axle line, handling is compromised by front-heavy weight distribution. This configuration does however facilitate the easy addition of <a href="/wiki/All-wheel_drive" class="mw-redirect" title="All-wheel drive">all-wheel drive</a>; <a href="/wiki/Subaru" title="Subaru">Subaru</a> also uses the overhung longitudinal engine for the same reason, but mitigates the problem of an unbalanced center of gravity by using a "flat-four" <a href="/wiki/Boxer_engine" class="mw-redirect" title="Boxer engine">boxer engine</a>. Renault, on the other hand, placed the engine <i>behind</i> the front axle line, but this compromises interior packaging since it forces the engine towards the firewall. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Ways_to_reduce_the_effect_of_torque_steer">Ways to reduce the effect of torque steer</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Torque_steer&amp;action=edit&amp;section=2" title="Edit section: Ways to reduce the effect of torque steer"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li>Employ the use of a tire with proper sidewall ply design, mitigating the sidewall deformation.</li> <li>Where unequal length driveshafts are used, their torsional stiffness must be made equal. This can be accomplished by making the shorter shaft hollow, and the longer shaft solid. This solution can be observed on the early <a href="/wiki/Autobianchi" title="Autobianchi">Autobianchi</a>/<a href="/wiki/Fiat" title="Fiat">Fiat</a> front wheel drive models such as the <a href="/wiki/Fiat_128" title="Fiat 128">Fiat 128</a> and <a href="/wiki/Fiat_127" title="Fiat 127">Fiat 127</a>, and was also later adopted on the original <a href="/wiki/Ford_Fiesta" title="Ford Fiesta">Ford Fiesta</a>.

This is already implemented on most modern cars.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> When the driveshafts have different length and excessive torque is applied, the longer <a href="/wiki/Half_shaft" class="mw-redirect" title="Half shaft">half shaft</a> flexes more than the shorter one. However, this is a short-term transient effect. To avoid fatigue failure, the amount of driveshaft torsional deflection must necessarily be small. Effects due to one wheel spinning more slowly than the other are usually negligible. Equal lengths of the driveshafts, in the case of no asymmetric suspension deflection due to roll or bump, keep the drive shaft angles equal. The main component of torque steer occurs when the torques in the driveshaft and the hub are summed vectorially, giving a resultant torque vector around the steering pivot axis (<a href="/wiki/Kingpin_(automotive_part)" title="Kingpin (automotive part)">kingpin</a>). These torques can be substantial, and in the case of shafts making equal angles to the hub shafts, will oppose one another at the steering rack, and so will cancel. These torques are strongly influenced by the position of the driveshaft constant-velocity joint in relation to the steering axis. However, due to other requirements such as achieving a small or negative <a href="/wiki/Scrub_radius" title="Scrub radius">scrub radius</a>, an optimum solution is not generally possible with simple suspension configurations such as <a href="/wiki/MacPherson_strut" title="MacPherson strut">MacPherson strut</a>.</li> <li>Equalise the torque better between the driveshafts by using a low friction <a href="/wiki/Differential_(mechanical_device)" title="Differential (mechanical device)">differential</a>.
