THIS VEHICLE IS DISTINGUISHED BY UNIQUE FEATURES FOUND ONLY ON THE LIMITED EDITION STINGER GTS.
POWERTRAIN – ALL WHEEL DRIVE*
4 The optional Dynamic - All Wheel Drive powertrain (D-AWD) has been enhanced with the addition of new control logic, and a rear axle mechanical limited slip differential which are designed to help enhance traction and distribute power more evenly in a variety of conditions.

• COMFORT MODE sends up to 60 percent of torque to the wheels to help enhance the feeling of stability
• SPORT MODE sends up to 80 percent of torque to the wheels for more spirited driving
• DRIFT MODE sends up to 100 percent of torque to the rear wheels and holds the transmission from upshifting when in manual shift mode
