Continuous All-Wheel
Drive |
Models equipped with 5- or 6-speed manual transmissions utilize a viscous-type locking center differential with torque distribution normally configured
at a 50/50-split front-to-rear. If wheel speed differs between front and rear axles, the system helps distribute power to the wheels with the most traction.
2.5 GT Limited models equipped with a viscous-type limited-slip rear differential. 2.5 GT spec.B equipped with a Torsen® limited-slip rear differential. |
| Active All-Wheel Drive |
Models equipped with 4-speed automatic transmission utilize an electronically controlled variable transfer clutch to distribute power to where traction is
needed. Sensors monitor parameters such as wheel slippage, throttle position and braking, to help determine torque distribution and direct it to the wheels
with optimum traction. |
Variable Torque
Distribution (VTD)
All-Wheel Drive |
Models equipped with 5-speed automatic transmission utilize an electronically controlled variable transfer clutch in conjunction with a planetary-type center
differential, and a viscous-type limited-slip rear differential. Torque distribution is normally configured at a performance-oriented rear-wheel-biased 45/55-
split front-to-rear. Sensors monitor parameters such as wheel slippage, throttle position and braking to help determine torque distribution and direct it to the
wheels with optimum traction. |

Vehicle Dynamics Control
(VDC) |
VDC electronic stability control utilizes sensors which constantly monitor wheel speed, steering angle, brake pressure, vehicle yaw rate and lateral
g-forces. If VDC detects a difference between the driver’s intended path and the one the vehicle is actually taking, VDC applies braking power and/or
reduces engine torque to help correct vehicle path.
2.5i and 2.5i S.E.: Not available. 2.5i Limited and 2.5 GT Limited: Optional. 2.5 GT spec.B and 3.0R Limited: Standard. |
Traction Control System
(TCS) |
VDC also incorporates an all-wheel, all-speed traction control system which senses a loss of traction and applies braking force to the slipping wheel or
wheels as necessary to maintain vehicle motion. |
