All-wheel drive (quattro)
General information
In all wheel drive, the driv in g power is distribut
ed between all four whee ls when needed. This
happens automatically depending on your driving
behavior as well as the current road conditions.
Also see
c> page 140 , Electronic Stabilization
Con trol (ESC).
The all-whee l drive system distributes the driving
power variably to the front and rear axle. It works
together with selective wheel torque control,
which activates when driving through curves
c> page 140. With the sport differential*, power
distribution to the rear wheels is variable and can
be adjusted using the drive select
c>poge 125 .
The all wheel drive concept is designed for high
engine power . Your vehicle is excep tionally pow
erful and has excellent driving characteristics
both under normal driving conditions and on
snow and ice. Always read and follow safety pre
cautions ¢.&. .
Winter tires
By using all wheel dr ive, your veh icle has good
forward motion w ith standard tires in winter con
ditions. However, using winter or all season t ires
o n oil four wheels in the winter is recommended,
because this w ill imp rove the braking effect.
Snow chains
If there are snow chain laws, snow chains must
also be used on veh icles with all wheel drive
