S-AWC (Super-All Wheel Control) (if so equipped) 5-82 Features and controls
5
The electronically controlled 4WD is a sys- tem that improves acceleration performance and stability performance by controlling front-rear distribution of
driving torque with
operating the electroni
c control coupling
arranged in the rear differential assembly.
The AYC is a system, with a left-right differ- ential limiting function
and yaw control func-
tion, that controls the left-rightdriving/braking force by managing the AFD* (Active Front Differential), the brake, the EPS.*: AFD (Active Front Differential) The Differential assembly that limits the front left-right differential
speed by operating elec-
tronic control clutch arranged in the transfer assembly. The left-right differential limiting function is a function that enhances driving performance and vehicle stability by
preventing idle spin-
ning of a wheel when driving on slippery road or when the road surfaces of left and right wheels are different. The yaw control function is a function that enhances vehicle cornering performance andvehicle stability with
management of vehicle
turning power (yaw moment) by controlling
the drive power difference of the left and right wheels and the braking force when thevehicle does not turn in
response to steering
input, such as when the steering wheel is turned quickly or when driving on slipperyroad.

Select the drive mode from the following four types to suit the driving conditions.
CAUTION Do not over-rely on the S-AWC. Even the S- AWC cannot prevent the natural laws ofphysics from acting on the vehicle. This sys-tem, like any other sy
stem, has limits and
cannot help you to main
tain traction and con-
trol of the vehicle in
all circumstances. Reck-
less driving can lead to
accidents. It is the
driver’s responsibility to drive carefully. This means taking into account the traffic,road and environmental conditions.
Electronically Controlled 4WD

NOTE
 If the parking brake le
ver is pulled up while
the vehicle is moving,
the front-rear distribu-
tion of driving torque control will turn OFFwhich will allow the rear wheels to lock eas- ier.
Active Yaw Control (AYC)

Left-right differential limiting function

Yaw control function

CAUTION Control of the braking force does not enhance the stopping performance of thevehicle, therefore, pa
y careful attention to
the safety of your surroundings when driv- ing.

This is the most fuel efficient mode. Normal operation is in 2WD, but 4WD performance will be provided under slippery conditions.
