The famous acronyms AWD, 4WD and 4x4 relate to the traction that some vehicles have on all four wheels. Engineer Garibaldi explains it clearly and simply in this video. #awd It means All Wheel Drive. This type of vehicle works with a system that has the function of sending traction to each of the wheels separately, this is mainly to maintain total control of the car and thus limit skidding, although without the possibility of blocking the system. This type of traction is used in those SUVs that seek more comfort in the city. #4wd The so-called Four Wheel Drive, unlike AWD, does allow you to lock both traction axles, or if you prefer, just one. In addition, it works at all times on the force of torque on all wheels. Its great advantage is that by doing this, the driver can choose the type of driving he needs to do. The traction in this case can be adapted to any type of road and weather condition. #4x4 It is undoubtedly the favorite of adventurers and all those who like to go off-road. This type of traction allows the force to be divided between the axles of the truck. Although it is not recommended that it be done all the time, since the gear box can be damaged. For this, we tell you that within the same 4x4, there are other types of traction such as 2H, 4H AND 4L [AIMO1]. Let's see the functions of each gear. #autotecnicatv The technology of the #cars explained clearly and simply with the information that the most passionate people in the #motor world appreciate.
