For decades, Mitsubishi has been at the forefront of progressive automotive technology. The latest chapter in that story is the advancement of their All-Wheel Drive Technology. First installed in 2007, this new-and-improved version is now available on Mitsubishi’s 2018 Eclipse Cross and Outlander models.
So what are the precise benefits of this new tech? Basically, computer controls now enable traditional all-wheel-drive to blend traction control, vehicle stability and predictive handling functions all at once. It provides a special mix that activates the vehicle’s all-wheel drive, stability control, antilock brakes and active stability control to most effectively navigate difficult terrain such as snow, rain, and gravel.
Mitsubishi’s engineers could break it down for you in excruciating detail, but the simplest explanation is that the torque between the vehicle’s front and rear wheels, both right and left, are activated in a smart fashion to better handle tricky driving conditions. Then the car’s brakes take hold via an electronically-controlled coupler mechanism. End result? A much more secure driving experience.
This Super All-Wheel Control Technology (S-AWC) is just the first iteration from Mitsubishi: another two-motor version will be offered shortly for hybrid models of their vehicles. Leave it to the experts at Mitsubishi to keep furthering safety technology for their customers, and putting other auto manufacturers on notice. Super All-Wheel Control Technology is merely one important reason to consider Mitsubishi for your next vehicle. There are plenty more, all of which you can discover for yourself at Peruzzi Mitsubishi.
