Arrangement of gears in the final drive of a
vehicle's transmission system that allows the
driving wheels to turn at different speeds
when cornering. The differential consists of
sets of bevel gears and pinions within a cage
attached to the crown wheel. When cornering,
the bevel pinions rotate to allow the outer
wheel to turn faster than the inner.
