What are the benefits of on-demand four-wheel drive?
1 Answers
On-demand four-wheel drive systems have a simple structure, low cost, light weight, and small size, and vehicles equipped with on-demand four-wheel drive systems are generally more fuel-efficient. Here is more information about on-demand four-wheel drive systems: 1. Vehicles equipped with four-wheel drive systems do not have power distributed to all four wheels at all times. For front-wheel-drive-based on-demand four-wheel drive systems, the front wheels are driven most of the time, and the rear wheels only receive power when the front wheels slip. For rear-wheel-drive-based on-demand four-wheel drive systems, the rear wheels are driven most of the time, and the front wheels only receive power when the rear wheels slip. 2. Performance cars also use on-demand four-wheel drive systems. In these performance cars, the four-wheel drive system operates in four-wheel drive mode during full-throttle acceleration to provide better traction. On-demand four-wheel drive systems are quite practical, but their off-road and escape capabilities are not as good as those of full-time four-wheel drive and part-time four-wheel drive systems.
