Difference between Differential (mechanical device) and Powertrain

Differential (mechanical device) vs. Powertrain

A differential is a gear train with three shafts that has the property that the rotational speed of one shaft is the average of the speeds of the others, or a fixed multiple of that average. In a motor vehicle, the term powertrain or powerplant describes the main components that generate power and deliver it to the road surface, water, or air.

Similarities between Differential (mechanical device) and Powertrain

Differential (mechanical device) and Powertrain have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Automobile layout, Axle, Drive shaft, Drive wheel, Gear train, Torque, Transmission (mechanics).

Automobile layout

In automotive design, the automobile layout describes where on the vehicle the engine and drive wheels are found.

Axle

An axle is a central shaft for a rotating wheel or gear.

Drive shaft

A drive shaft, driveshaft, driving shaft, propeller shaft (prop shaft), or Cardan shaft is a mechanical component for transmitting torque and rotation, usually used to connect other components of a drive train that cannot be connected directly because of distance or the need to allow for relative movement between them.

Drive wheel

A drive wheel is a wheel of a motor vehicle that transmits force, transforming torque into tractive force from the tires to the road, causing the vehicle to move.
