Standard 4x4
A Standard 4x4 vehicle, also known as four-wheel drive, is a type of drivetrain that powers all four wheels simultaneously, providing enhanced traction and off-road capability. Many vehicles come with this drivetrain as either a standard feature or as an option, and they are commonly used for off-roading, driving in adverse weather conditions, or navigating rough terrains.
Key Features of a Standard 4x4:
Power to All Four Wheels: Unlike two-wheel drive vehicles, which only power the front or rear wheels, a 4x4 system ensures power is sent to both the front and rear wheels for better grip.
Off-Road Capability: Provides superior traction on rough, slippery, or uneven surfaces (like snow, mud, sand, or gravel).
Manual or Automatic: Some 4x4 systems are manually engaged (via a lever or dial), while others engage automatically when the system detects a loss of traction.
