==={{anchor|FMF}}FMF layout – ''Front Mid-engine / Front-wheel drive''=== [[Image:Automotive diagrams 07 En.png|thumb|275px|Front mid-engine position / Front-wheel drive]] {{main|Front-mid-engine, front-wheel-drive layout}} These cars are "mid-ship engined" vehicles, but they use [[front-wheel drive]], with the engine in front of the driver. It is still treated as an FF layout, though, due to the engine's placement still being in the front of the car, contrary to the popular belief that the engine is placed in front of the rear axle with power transferred to the front wheels (an RMF layout). In most examples, the engine is longitudinally mounted rather than transversely as is common with FF cars. * [[BSA Scout]] * [[Citroën Traction Avant]], [[Citroën DS|DS]], [[Citroën SM|SM]] * [[Nissan GT-R LM Nismo]] * [[Renault 4]], [[Renault 5|5]], [[Renault 16|16]] * [[Saab Sonett]] Mk1 * [[Honda Vigor#Third generation|Honda Vigor]]/[[Honda Inspire#First generation|Inspire]] 1989–1995 * [[Maserati Quattroporte II]]
