reduce the amount of effort
needed to turn the steering
wheel
■E-Four
Electronic On-Demand AWD
system. Automatically switches
from front-wheel drive to
all-wheel drive (AWD) according
to the driving conditions, helping
to ensure reliable handling and
stability. Examples of conditions
where the system will switch to
AWD are when cornering, going
uphill, starting off or accelerat-
ing, and when the road surface
is slippery due to snow, rain, etc.
■VDIM (Vehicle Dynamics
Integrated Management)
Provides integrated control of
the ABS, brake assist, TRAC,
