Why is All-Wheel Drive Important?

There are many benefits associated with driving an all-wheel drive vehicle. Traction on slick surfaces is worth its weight in gold when the weather turns nasty. If you're someone who likes to head out on adventures with a variety of terrains like gravel, dirt, mud, and sand, then this feature is optimal. These surfaces don't have the same amount of traction that you'll find on paved surfaces, especially around corners and when you need to accelerate.

How Does All-Wheel Drive Work on a Nissan?

There are many moving parts that contribute to how all-wheel drive works on a Nissan. Torque is sent from your transmission over to all four of your wheels. If you were driving a front-wheel drive vehicle, then power would only be sent to the front wheels. Rear-wheel drive vehicles only have power transferring to the rear wheels. When you have power going to all four of the wheels, you're going to have a superior amount of traction on the road.

When you have all-wheel drive on your vehicle, you'll find that there are some additional parts that may need to be maintained or serviced along the way. A transfer case and front/rear differentials are included.
