SYMMETRICAL ALL-WHEEL DRIVE
Continuous All-Wheel Drive
Baja Sport and Baja Turbo, equipped with 5-speed manual transmission, utilize a viscous-type locking center differential with torque
distribution normally configured at a 50/50-split front-to-rear. If wheel speed differs between front and rear axles, the system helps
distribute power to the wheels with the most traction.
Active All-Wheel Drive
Baja Sport, equipped with 4-speed automatic transmission, utilizes an electronically controlled variable multiplate transfer clutch and viscoustype limited-slip rear differential to distribute power to where traction is needed. Sensors monitor parameters such as wheel slippage, throttle
position and braking to help determine torque distribution to the wheels with optimum traction.
Variable Torque Distribution (VTD)
Baja Turbo, equipped with 4-speed automatic transmission, utilizes an electronically controlled variable transfer clutch in conjunction with
a planetary-type center differential. Torque distribution is normally configured at a performance-oriented rear-wheel-biased 45/55-split
front-to-rear. Sensors monitor parameters such as wheel slippage, throttle position and braking to help determine torque distribution to
the wheels with optimum traction.
