Ford All-Wheel Drive

If you want a car that goes wherever you want to go and saves fuel simultaneously, a Ford with all-wheel drive is a perfect choice. When you get a Ford with AWD, you'll have a broader range of performance features to look forward to, along with having a car that provides you with predictable handling and control in a number of situations. While AWD comes in handy throughout the year, it is particularly valuable in winter when your Ford may need more traction and control. All-wheel drive provides a vehicle with optimal handling, fuel economy, braking, and safety. To see your options for an AWD vehicle, check out our new and used AWD inventory today.

Why is All-Wheel Drive Important?

All-wheel drive provides Ford owners with a variety of advantages. With AWD, you can enjoy a car that performs and handles well throughout the year. AWD is especially beneficial in winter, as it provides more traction and stability if your vehicle has less grip on the road. All-wheel drive gives all four wheels the same amount of power, but it can automatically adjust power as needed to provide the front or back wheels more power and control. Ford configures its cars with all-wheel drive on a part-time or full-time basis, which means your vehicle may have all-wheel drive all the time, or it may change between front-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive as needed. If you drive a car with all-wheel drive in all seasons, you can enjoy the fuel efficiency that comes with the drivetrain, along with the advantage of being able to travel easily off-road whenever you want to.

How Does All-Wheel Drive Work on a Ford?

While many automakers provide all-wheel drive on their cars, Ford has a special computer-oriented AWD system that gives your car unique advantages. AWD on a Ford is connected to hundreds of sensors. The sensors are placed around the car's four wheels to closely track the car's performance and the wheels' traction and grip. If the Ford's AWD system senses that the tires are losing grip on the road, it will divert power to the different wheels as needed. Your Ford's AWD system will also keep track of wheel speed, accelerator pedal angle, and the angle of the steering wheel to adjust power as necessary.
