Because the MEB platform is standard RWD the large 200 hp motor is in the rear. The AWD version gets an additional small 100 hp motor in the front. I doubt the large motor fits in the front due to the need to turn the wheels and I don't see them offering a 100 hp FWD version. Even the RWD version is a bit slow.
