quattro® All-wheel Drive

Permanent all-wheel drive systems are not created equal. And they certainly don't perform that way, either. quattro® is essentially a mechanical system devised around a torque-sensing, self-locking, center differential that shifts torque instantaneously to where it's needed. This means quattro® is adjusting power between front and rear axles more than 100 times a second, helping ensure torque is delivered to the wheels where traction exists. Under normal driving situations, quattro® distributes the power between each axle by sending 40 percent to the front wheels and 60 percent to the rear wheels, enhancing the driving dynamics while helping maintain optimum control. Constantly assessing grip, quattro® ensures the best possible combination of traction and handling, regardless of the road conditions.
