Q. How many types of differentials are there?
Ans. 

There are mainly three types of differentials: open differential, limited-slip differential, and locking differential.

  • Open differential allows wheels to spin at different speeds, useful for regular driving conditions.

  • Limited-slip differential limits the speed difference between wheels, providing better traction.

  • Locking differential locks both wheels together, ensuring equal power distribution for maximum traction.
