Default Rear wheel drive question

Hi
A general question please:
My new is300h is a rear wheel drive.
I think that there isn’t any issue as it drove 2000 miles only. The car is like new bought from Lexus official importer.
my wife and me noticed that in some driving situations on an highways, there’s like a Drift filling from the front car.
Can this filling because of a front wheel drive technology?
Thanks

Not sure we quite understand the question.
Also as most on here are from North America, where we don't get the 300h, we would likely have little insight into anything that is specific to the hybrid version of the IS.
General questions we'd probably be able to help with.

It’s a basic question.
Can a rear wheel drive car make sometimes drift filling from the front wheels comper to a front wheel drive transmission?
Thank you

No. There should be no drift feeling or sensation from the front of any car, regardless of rear wheel drive, front wheel drive, or all wheel drive.
