AI Technical Summary
Existing automobile designs do not optimize wheel positioning to enhance maneuverability, speed, and fuel efficiency, particularly considering the shift in center of gravity due to passenger seating.
The front wheels are positioned to lean forward during braking, and the rear wheels are placed closer to the center of gravity, taking into account the average center of gravity shift with rear seat occupancy.
Improves automobile maneuverability, increases speed, and enhances fuel efficiency by optimizing wheel positioning based on the center of gravity adjustments.

Abstract
Description
The positions of the front and rear wheels of the vehicle are determined taking into account the center of gravity. This can be decided through experimentation, but the rear wheels are attached closer to the weaker penetration than before. The front wheels are installed with the understanding that they will lean forward when braking. Problems that the invention aims to solve: Increase the maneuverability of automobiles, increase speed, and improve fuel efficiency. [Brief explanation of the drawings] [Figure 1] The center of gravity changes when someone sits in the back seat, so the setting must take into account the average center of gravity.
