Curious if AWD truly is that unnecessary..then why would it sell?
Or is the waves of people sticking to RWD vocal because its clear that their preference is in the minority of choice?
The thing is..if AWD was that 'unnecessary' for these vehicles, why would people keep buying it?
If I (or anyone else) went from a RWD BMW (or any other brand) to an AWD one, and saw no noticeable difference, why would they rebuy an AWD model? Why would the number of vehicles with AWD continue to increase?
There are fads, and there are genuine safety features.
Fad: hand signals while driving
safety feature: voice commands
for what is supposed to be a sophisticated customer base, we have an incredible amount of people who stick to outdated beliefs like gospel.
Lots of things were done "one way" for long periods of time, because they were the ONLY way of doing it, regardless of safety features.
A gas stove presents obvious safety issues that an electric or induction cooktop simply doesnt. Gas stoves have a "preference" amongst most too. Nobody NEEDS induction either, until 20 years from now they'll call us cavemen for letting kids burn their hands on the stove out of curiousity.
