But on the other hand, the number of sport utilitarian vehicle (SUV) cars, one of the integral components of which is four-wheel drive, is increasing. Therefore, the aim of this work is to investigate objective reasons for purchasing an all-wheel drive car and to investigate its maintenance costs in the east region of Vidzeme.
