Chevrolet Models With All-Wheel Drive or 4WD

Why is All-Wheel Drive Important?

All-wheel drive matters because the tires get better traction on the pavement. This leads to fewer accidents on the highway. An estimated 6,000 people die, and 445,000 suffer injuries every year because of bad weather and poor road conditions. Weather-related accidents account for 22 percent of all accidents every year.

Better traction improves safety. You still need to drive with care, but you will be less prone to slipping with all four tires working together. All-wheel drive vehicles from Chevrolet can power through the harshest weather and terrain. The selection of all-wheel drive vehicles in Chevrolet's lineup includes trucks, SUVs, and crossovers. Some AWD models are the Tahoe, Traverse, Equinox, Suburban, Silverado, and Colorado.

How Does All-Wheel Drive Work on a Chevrolet?

All-wheel drive on Chevrolet vehicles works through high range transfer, which directs engine power to the back wheels. Sensors installed in the car detect when it needs to increase the engine power. Doing this automatically, you never need to worry about it. However, you can press the "AWD button" when you want extra power.

Whenever icy or snowy weather conditions make the highways dangerous, your AWD system will kick in to give you better traction. Some people specifically seek out a vehicle with this because it leads to better safety on the road. The all-wheel drive systems usually adds about 150 extra pounds because they need a chunkier chassis to hold them together and the extra parts needed for AWD. This added weight improves safety on the road because of how heavier vehicles keep moving in a crash with lighter ones, making the people inside the car less subjected to the force of the collision.
