4wd usually means the axles are locked together. Better for rocks and stuff.

AWD usually means its a center diff, the axles can rotate at different speeds. Good for snow.

Things are a lot more complicated nowadays, some awd systems are able to more efficiently control where power goes to, some awd systems are useless even on the road though. Rented a ford explorer once and the awd decided it had enough when I needed it most.

And when we needed it most, it vanished

A hundred years passed and my brother and I discovered the new AWD.

It's always when you need the car the most that it decides to poop the bed

Yeah, but most people won't know that and I would have the exact same look as that which is why this was pretty funny. We know there is a difference just no idea how to explain it.

I have a haldex awd, never had anything but fwd so looking forward to trying it in the snow.

Curiously it has a factory 4x4 badge on it even though it's awd.

Only thing I'm lacking is appropriate tyres but most Brits run summers year round

For reference it's a Vauxhall Insignia 2.0 CDTi 4x4

And AWD with 4WD lock?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

Probably too heavy and not great for either

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

Usually worse than both
