What's the Difference Between 4WD vs. AWD?
When it comes to optimum performance, safety and control of your vehicle, understanding the difference between all-wheel drive (AWD) and four-wheel drive (4WD) drivetrains is crucial. An AWD drivetrain sends power to all four wheels of your vehicle via a front, rear and center differential, enabling them to operate independently. This flexibility ensures improved handling, providing extra grip when negotiating a steady curve or dealing with inclement weather conditions.
On the other hand, a 4WD drivetrain operates by supplying power to all four wheels as one unit through two differentials and a transfer case. Well-suited to rough, off-road terrains and heavy-duty purposes, this is the system to choose if challenging, outdoor permutations are your main focus. Understanding these differences will help you make an informed choice that best suits your driving needs.
