What is BMW xDrive?
The terms ‘4WD’, ‘4x4’ and ‘all-wheel drive’ are all used interchangeably, but they all essentially refer to the same thing. Powered by an extra layer of intelligence, BMW xDrive is one of the most technically advanced all-wheel drive systems around. BMW’s xDrive system powers all the wheels in a 40:60 split between front and rear to give better grip, which in turn improves handling and cornering.
-
How does BMW xDrive work?
When driving a conventional vehicle in icy, muddy, snowy or wet conditions, the front or rear wheels can lose their grip on the road. With BMW xDrive, intelligent Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) sensors detect even the slightest loss of grip and respond by diverting the power to the set of wheels that have the best traction via an electronically controlled multi-disc clutch. This allows your vehicle to react much faster than traditional, hydraulically operated systems.
BMW xDrive is also a fully variable system, which means that it can send almost 100% of the power to either axle. This delivers instantaneous and effective transfer of engine power, ensuring your BMW performs exceptionally well on the road handling twists and turns in the road and changes in the weather with ease. BMW xDrive models have a remarkably low CO2 output thanks to the TwinPower Turbo engines and EfficientDynamics technologies.
