Kia Sportage AWD System

Kia Motors and Magna Powertrain, part of Magna International Inc, announced the official launch of the new Dynamax™ All-Wheel-Drive (AWD) system in the all-new Kia Sportage. Dynamax continuously monitors driving conditions and anticipates AWD system requirements, compared to other AWD systems which can only react to conditions after they occur.

great handling In BC Canada. Especially love the downhill button on our 1 in 7 driveway ramp. In snow and first gear it sticks to the ramp like glue.

[@gmannman8984]

Yes, most systems now deliver power to individual wheels, this delivers it to the front or rear axle.

I love the technology going into these! Great video demo too!

[@redphiveII]

@Loscaldazar i bet it must also have the basic mechanical differential. otherwise it wont turn in corners

[@mcmt1139]

Kia steps it up. I hope Hyundai has their hands on this AWD tech as well!?

How can i activte AWD system in sportage 2013

[@lunatic206]

It is permanently active. In addition, you can lock the differential and have 25% fixed on each wheel. This is sufficient for starting off on slippery surfaces.

[@willycwlin]

I don't know what really special about this TRUE AWD system... it doesn't really show how it works compare to the old awd and even the animation does not look realistic...and a true awd system i would say would be at least a limited slip or locker in both front and rear differentials..

WillyLin how do I turn off the AWD system warning light off

[@florinsi]

many idiots here ! any ESP system can make individual wheels get different torque when needed as stability requires ! LEARN BEFORE YOU TEACH ! individual wheel "torque vectoring" = differential AXLE torque delivery + individual wheel braking by ESP . There is a reason not all of us were made with the same IQ !

[@akostadinov]

Hi. Do you say that ESP will make sure left and right wheels will not spin while the other one is stuck? Thus effectively preventing a situation where car stays on front left and rear right wheel stuck while the other two spinning? I amt rying tofigure out whether Kia has this feature before buying. But can't find a definitive official answer.

You obviously have a very hight opinion of yourself One that is not shared by others I would imagine

[@SilverWolf25]

How does this AWD system compare to Subaru's AWD system?

[@alainbrisebois8334]

Subaru AWD symmetrical system works the same way. Subaru invented first a decade ago.

[@zungaloca]

awesome

[@Anatoliy419]

Система само по себе хорошая придумано как-то управляемая ну материалы дешёвые долго не обслуживает. ДВС то-же не качественно быстро стучит . Само минусы одной из самых больших размеров это подвеска передние и задние очень жеско как табуретка на колёсах. Общее количество три баллов.

[@Wrxbandit1]

It dose not

[@popov2080]

the same thing, but in Russian please.

[@superquick87]

it's not a Jeep.

[@chargerhp1]
