Volkswagen Tharu offers a four-wheel-drive version. Here is more information about the Tharu: 1. The Tharu measures 4453 mm in length, 1841 mm in width, and 1632 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2680 mm. 2. Tharu models equipped with the full-time four-wheel-drive system feature a central differential, which distributes power between the front and rear axles. 3. The Tharu is a compact SUV, and all models come with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The dual-clutch transmission has high transmission efficiency and fast shifting speed, making it well-suited for use with small-displacement turbocharged engines.

I drove my friend's Tharu, which was the 4WD version. It performed exceptionally steady on muddy rural roads, with power distributed to both front and rear wheels, providing excellent traction. It hardly slips even in rain or snow. Volkswagen's design is quite smart—fuel consumption is slightly higher during normal driving, but the extra cost is completely worth it when tackling complex terrains. I recommend it as a priority for those who frequently venture off-road. Not all versions come with 4WD, so check the specific model when purchasing. I remember last time on a long trip, crossing a small stream was effortless, making me feel much safer. Overall, the 4WD in the Tharu is a genuine option, especially suitable for practical-minded car owners.

As a car enthusiast, I've studied the 4WD system of the Tharu. It's an optional configuration that's more hardcore than the FWD version but comes at a higher price. Compared to similar SUVs like the Haval H6, Volkswagen's 4WD responds faster, with electronic control automatically adjusting power distribution between wheels, especially providing better grip during uphill climbs or turns. However, it's not really necessary for city driving—it's more fuel-consuming and cumbersome. It shines during outings or in winter conditions. During my test drive, it handled slippery roads with stable cornering, giving me much more confidence. Before purchasing, evaluate your driving habits—if you frequently go off-road or live in areas with heavy rain or snow, definitely opt for the 4WD.

The Tharu does offer some models with 4WD capability, which can automatically distribute power between the front and rear wheels to enhance road adaptability. This feature proves more reliable in rainy, snowy, or muddy conditions, reducing the risk of losing control. For daily driving, it may consume slightly more fuel, so considering your budget and usage is crucial. Volkswagen's system is straightforward and efficient, requiring no manual switching.
