Unlike basic AWD systems that react to a spinning wheel, i-Activ AWD® is always engaged and proactively monitors vehicle dynamics data in real-time to watch for variations in wheel loads that a driver may not notice. The system then automatically controls the distribution of torque to provide predictable handling when driving on unpaved roads or in difficult conditions.30
