With a rear-wheel drive vehicle, the front wheels steer the car while the back wheels are responsible for powering the car down the road. When each tire is only responsible for one job, this usually results in better handling of the vehicle.
Drivers that love rear-wheel drive vehicles state that it is possible to turn easier, and have more overall control of the car. It is an old technology, and one that has been used for decades.
With front-wheel drive vehicles, traction in poor conditions such as ice and snow is better. With FWD, the interior of the vehicle has more room because of the way the engine is mounted and where the transmission sits. The drive-shaft is smaller, and FWD cars are often smaller and more fuel efficient.
