Infiniti intelligent all wheel drive

Quattro changed everything

Couple of years later, Porsche took it even farther. The miracle drivelines are the new Mitsi in particular, and the Nissan to a lesser degree. Early Quattro wasn't better, it was the only not made for agricultural reasons. They showed the world the advantage of all four clawing for traction in the rally world, and very much, led the way for everyone else.

I think what makes the Isuzu Torque-on-Demand system meaningfully different is the rear wheel bias. Said differently, it puts the torque where the traction would do the most good for cornering ability. When a vehicle accelerates out of the apex of a turn, all the monentum and weight shifts to the rear tires, and torque focused primarily on these weight bearing rear wheels makes all the diffrerence.

I have to agree with the Subie comment. I swore by my VX and TOD but when I got my WReX, I found myself confused. For a sporty little bugger, the Subie can handle rougher conditions with an amount of ease. Top that with speed and performance and it becomes quite the cross trainer. Though, I wouldn't pick one over the other since they are both fun for whatever the occasion calls for.

I at least now find myself in possession of a DD that I can drive in light snow conditions (since it's lowered) and a vehicle with higher clearance for deeper snow. And in perfect conditions, simply 2 extremely fun vehicles.
