Volkswagen vehicles have plenty of features that help them stand out from other vehicles in similar classes. One of the features that is exclusive to Volkswagen vehicles is VW 4MOTION® AWD system. How is this Volkswagen AWD system different from other AWD systems? This AWD Volkswagen feature uses advanced technology to help improve your drives and give you more control on the Norman roads. Learn more about this unique driving feature with Allen Samuels Volkswagen today.
The Volkswagen AWD system works by automatically sensing which tires need the most amount of torque and adjusts the engine output accordingly based on driving conditions. When all of the tires are engaged, the AWD Volkswagen feature distributes about 90% of power to the front axle and about 10% of power to the rear axle. If the sensors indicate that one of the tires is losing traction, then the weight is redistributed immediately. If the roads are smooth, then the VW 4MOTION® AWD system can switch to FWD or RWD, which helps conserve fuel use.
Overall, this creates responsive handling, capable traction control, and perfect torque balance on the Edmond roads.

There are no current Volkswagen vehicles that offer 4WD. There might be some characteristics of 4WD in some Volkswagen vehicles, but they use an AWD Volkswagen system.
