Most front wheel drive cars use stub axles in the rear. There is no need for rear differential. The ONLY purpose for a differential is to distribute power to the two wheels on an axle and to allow for differnt turning rates of the wheels in corners. If the car is front-wheel drive, it has no rear differential. If the car is rear-wheel drive, it has no front differential. If the car is 4-wheel or All-wheel drive then it probably has front and rear differentials. Some cars do without a true distinct differential altogether, but they are more rare.
