When you're driving on rough or uneven terrain, you want to know that your vehicle is capable of handling it. This is where the Volkswagen 4MOTION AWD system comes into play. It's designed with versatile uses in mind and available in many Volkswagen vehicles, so let's dive into the nuts of bolts of this performance-enhancing system. Exploring the Volkswagen 4MOTION AWD System How Does 4MOTION Work? Volkswagen 4MOTION is a proprietary all-wheel drive system. It works by evenly distributing power to all four wheels when it's sensed that greater traction and stability is needed. When driving on dry surfaces, the majority of your vehicle's power is sent to your front wheels. However, when facing adverse elements and surfaces such as snow, ice, mud, or dirt, your wheels may begin to slip, in which case the system automatically adjusts power and torque as needed to achieve stability. 4MOTION is engineered with a torque vectoring system, so you never have to sacrifice speed for stability. This is essential for a performance-designed car such as the Golf R, which handles curves with superb stability while letting you feel the wind in your hair. more What Is Unique About the 4MOTION System? 4MOTION is unique in its efficiency and intelligent sensing, requiring no action from the driver in order to engage the system. This means that your vehicle can detect potential road challenges and hazards long before you can, and respond appropriately to keep you safe. Because of its intelligent activation, it can be used for everyday driving on city roads as well as in off-roading adventures, providing you with maximum control no matter your circumstances. For even more control, you can take advantage of several driving modes that are tailored towards different terrain types. Off-Road Mode helps to maintain traction on tricky road surfaces, and it can automatically activate Hill Descent Control to help you go down hills safely. Snow Mode helps keep your vehicle in a lower RMP range, preventing power from going to the wheels too quickly. All modes are available from the center touchscreen display, making switching between them a breeze. What Vehicles Come With 4MOTION? The 4MOTION AWD system is available on a wide variety of current vehicles, including: 2024 Volkswagen Golf R 2024 Volkswagen Tiguan 2024 Volkswagen Taos 2024 Volkswagen ID.4 2024 Volkswagen Atlas 2024 Volkswagen Cross Sport On some vehicles, 4MOTION comes standard and on others it requires an extra add-on. Regardless of which vehicle model you desire, 4MOTION can be paired with various powertrains, offering you a truly diverse range of possibilities. Volkswagen's 4MOTION system is an efficient, intelligent, and top-of-the-line AWD set-up. Take advantages of all its possibilities and learn more today at Tom Bush Volkswagen in Jacksonville, FL.
