How to activate the four-wheel drive on the Audi Q5L?
2 Answers
Audi Q5L is equipped with an on-demand four-wheel drive system, namely the Quattro Ultra four-wheel drive system, which does not require manual operation via a button to switch the car from two-wheel drive to four-wheel drive. The on-demand four-wheel drive system installed in the car will automatically analyze road conditions to switch the car's driving state between two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive modes. The Audi Q5L offers a spacious and practical overall driving and riding space, with ample legroom and headroom, flexible seat combinations, and well-padded seats that provide excellent comfort. The interior features abundant storage space, and the large trunk volume makes it convenient to store bulky items. The Audi Q5L perfectly combines the body design of a sports sedan, efficient power and responsive handling, the off-road safety performance of an SUV, and the outstanding comfort and versatile interior space of a station wagon, inheriting many of the advantages of the third-generation top SUV, the Audi Q7.
The quattro all-wheel drive system in the Audi Q5L is always active and doesn't require manual activation. From my own driving experience, the system automatically detects wheel slip – like on rainy or snowy roads – and instantly redistributes power to wheels with better traction to prevent skidding. Even during normal driving on dry roads, the AWD operates quietly in the background to optimize steering stability. There's no dedicated on/off button, not even around the steering wheel controls, which might confuse new owners, but it's actually an intelligent design that eliminates driver hassle. To confirm it's working, try low-speed hill climbing or sharp turns – you'll feel enhanced vehicle stability when the system engages. Maintenance is straightforward too, just requiring regular checks of transmission and differential fluids during servicing. In short, forget about manual control in the Audi Q5L – it's always ready to handle various road conditions, making driving both safer and more effortless.
