Typically what I have seen on front engine rear wheel drive vehicles with 2 or move V-belts on a V8 or V6 engine tends to follow the cylinders up the engine. They cant put accessories in line with the engine pulley on a horizontal plane because the accessories tend to run into wheel arches or frame.
On a FWD car they might be able to position accessories so belts pulling on the crank can cancel each other out. Then it just becomes nearly impossible to change a belt or accessory on these cars.
