What is Volkswagen 4MOTION® All-Wheel Drive?

2018 Volkswagen 4Motion AWD models

You’ve heard of all-wheel drive — but what about Volkswagen 4MOTION®? It’s a little different than your average all-wheel drive system and is available on select new VW vehicles. Thanks to advanced technology, 4MOTION® delivers superior performance and handling, giving you peace of mind during your journeys through Chicago. How does the 4MOTION® all-wheel drive system work? Read on to learn more!

AWD Performance vs. 4WD Performance

How do all-wheel drive vs. four-wheel drive compare? Performance-wise, both drivetrains offer enhanced traction on Orland Park roads. Unlike four-wheel drive, which needs to be switched on, all-wheel drive is always ready to go. When your vehicle hits rugged terrain, such as a patch of ice or runoff from a hill, there’s the potential for a delay with four-wheel drive — but not with 4MOTION® all-wheel drive.

How Does 4MOTION® All-Wheel Drive Work?

The 4MOTION® system builds off the standard all-wheel drive platform for more intuitive and responsive performance. Handling-wise, it feels very much like front-wheel drive but can spur into full AWD performance at a moment’s notice. In fact, 4MOTION® allocates about 90% of power to the front axle and about 10% to the rear. This gives you the benefit of added fuel economy when the rear axle isn’t fully engaged.

4MOTION® uses sensors to constantly monitor traction. If a tire starts losing traction, the system redistributes power as needed. No matter the road ahead, you can feel confident you’ll always have the best possible torque balance.

What Are the Volkswagen AWD Models?

You can find 4MOTION® all-wheel drive on the following Volkswagen models:

  • Volkswagen Atlas
  • Volkswagen Golf Alltrack
  • Volkswagen Golf R
  • Volkswagen Golf Sportwagen
  • Volkswagen Tiguan
