Differences between front-wheel drive, all-wheel drive, four-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive explained in the first part of the new ABC of off-roading series with the Maruti Suzuki Jimny. This is an eight-part off-roading series hosted by editor Sirish Chandran with in-depth tutorials on how to drive the Jimny off-road in different terrains and conditions. We start with the basics and demonstrate the traction advantage of AWD and 4x4 over FWD and RWD with the Suzuki Jimny. We also explain the technical differences in these systems. And before we end a few tips to make off-roading a safe and fun experience.

How does the selective 4*4 work in vitara without transfer case? Is there a clutch linkage? Also what would happen if you engage traction control in Vitara? Can it brake the wheels that have no traction to provide torque transfer to other wheels?

@jyotirmanchoudhury 8 ай бұрын

Can you please explain why the AWD Grand Vitara struggled while the 4X4 Jimny succeded..when technicalities aside essentially power was being routed to all four wheels in both the cars and advantages of BoF architecture and articulation did not play any significant role in the incline..was it related to loss of momentum?

2 K15B engines with similar power & torque output one having FWD , One having RWD with 4*4 transfer case and then a K15C with AWD again similar figures . Nice demo of their capabilities . This shows no matter what a proper 4*4 machine 🔥is always superior to pseudo SUV's and which are in the end crossovers😂 with flat bonet and ground clearance , FWD setup in such terrains . U can get luxury and features in a pseudo SUV👍 but not always capability👎. 4*4 isnt everyones cup of tea.🤗

It’s always good to keep a check on your tyre pressures. You could do that using TPMS or you could also keep a portable pressure gauge and an inflator

@saviom8166 8 ай бұрын

As far as I am concerned, you have chosen to the perfect cars to compare the Jimny with. I still didn't fully comprehend the difference between AWD and 4×4 since both seem to transfer power to all 4 wheels. Does the AWD do it without the 'tranfer case'? Is that the key? Then I will look up just what transfer cases are. In the sample shown in this video, in my amateur mind that is not educated enough on this topic, did the Grand Vitara in AWD and the Jimny in 4H essentially have the same set up, and the Jimny succeeded because of the lower weight or something? Or does the AWD and 4H differ in other ways too?
