Four-Wheel Drive (4WD)

Four-Wheel Drive (4WD) is a vehicle system that powers all four wheels simultaneously, providing better traction and control on challenging terrains like snow, mud, or off-road conditions. Unlike standard two-wheel drive vehicles, which send power to only the front or rear wheels, 4WD distributes torque evenly across all four wheels, reducing slippage and improving stability. Many 4WD systems can be manually engaged or automatic, allowing drivers to adapt to various driving conditions. This system is especially useful for off-road adventures or in environments where maintaining grip is difficult.
