AWD COMPARISON - Evo X // STI // Focus RS // Golf R // Quattro

#AWD #comparison #cars
Join us for a deep dive into the world of all-wheel-drive systems. In this educational video, we break down the technology behind AWD, featuring the Mitsubishi Evo X (S-AWC), Subaru WRX STI (Symmetrical AWD), VW Golf R (4 Motion), Ford Focus RS (GKN AWD), and the iconic Audi Quattro!
Discover the inner workings of AWD, from torque vectoring to differentials (open and limited-slip) and active yaw control. Whether you're a seasoned enthusiast or a beginner, this video provides valuable insights into automotive engineering.

AWD for the win!

[@phatkuya143]

Wow❤

[@402car_kid4]

the focus rs uses GKN made awd system with twinster rear drive unit its not haldex or even made by haled fyi. its a lot better system than a haldex. Very similar to the evo awd. Also only a few 2018 rs had the lid up front the rest are all open thats why a lsd is a huge upgrade. Also straight from gkn the focus can send 100 percent to the rear and vector it between each rear wheel if needed. it's overdriven by 1.8. Also the rs is permanently coupled and uses clutches in the rear that are electronically controlled to divide between the 2 rear wheels.

you basically reiterated much of what i said. I used haldex as an analogy.

[@swastikgrover3414]

For Torque or break vectoring systems, could that jerk car if the surface has uneven grip here there? I see rally cars run thru uneven grip surface whether there be some snow, ice, dirt, mixed with tarmac but intuitively if the car gives more torque where there’s more traction, could that swing the car unpredictably due to unpredictably of the surface?

[@swastikgrover3414]

I’m not so experience but that’s why an lsd sounds like the best bet for predictability

[@scanr10]

Isn't there a distinction between the quattro variants within the different generations as well? like i thought the MQB platform prior to 2022 for both VW and Audi (in things like the A3 line, Golf, SQ2, T-Roc, T-Cross, etc.) all use the haldex set up that you mentioned for the Mk 7 Golf R, rather than just a general quattro across the board? Other than that dude good video, would be interesting to see how the BMW xDrive and the Mercedes 4Matic work too!

[@Huntsteven6]

There certainly are many variants but the video would have been much longer if I covered them all haha

[@402car_kid4]

yes haldex based Quattro is for tranverse mounted engines and the real all time awd Quattro is for longitudinal based engines. there are a few differnt gens of the real Quattro for instance my b5s4 is gen 4.

[@cameronmitchel8814]

I have a lancer se awc So what type of system do I have on my car please

[@andreimihail3677]

That is the Lancer Evolution X's S-AWC (super all wheel control system) so in my opinion, one if the best AWD ever made

[@str8edge142]

which system drifts/powerslide sustains the easiest???

[@Huntsteven6]

I haven’t driven all the cars but I would assume the focus rs

[@str8edge142]

I would love if the answer was the EVO X.I am looking to buy one but I really want to have some fun in the corners while having the safety of AWD.So few videos in youtube showing EVOs drifting or powersliding.Focus RS is ugly af

[@Huntsteven6]

@@str8edge142 my man, I’m an Evo guy too, I’ve owned mine for almost 4 years now, and let me tell you… it’s a magical experience that other cars on that list simply won’t offer. You won’t regret it.
