SYMMETRICAL AWD
Models equipped with 5-speed manual transmission utilize a viscous-type locking center differential with torque distribution normally
Continuous All-Wheel Drive configured at a 50/50-split front-to-rear. If wheel speed differs between front and rear axles, the system helps distribute power to the
wheels with the most traction.
Models equipped with 4-speed automatic transmission utilize an electronically controlled variable transfer clutch to distribute power to
Active All-Wheel Drive where traction is needed. Sensors monitor parameters such as wheel slippage, throttle position and braking, to help determine torque
distribution and direct it to the wheels with optimum traction.
STABILITY AND TRACTION
Standard VDC electronic stability control utilizes sensors which constantly monitor wheel speeds, steering angle, brake pressure, vehicle
Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC) yaw rate and lateral g-forces. If VDC detects a difference between the driver's intended path and the one the vehicle is actually taking,
VDC applies braking power and/or reduces engine torque to help correct vehicle path.
VDC also incorporates an all-wheel, all-speed traction control system which senses a loss of traction and applies braking force to the
Traction Control System (TCS)
slipping wheel or wheels as necessary to maintain vehicle motion.
