What are 4×4 cars?

November 3rd, 2010

Most of the SUV and CUV have 4×4 drive, but this is not compulsory. Also not all 4×4 or 4WD cars are SUV or CUV. A four wheeled car is a vehicle that has a drivetrain that supports all four wheels to receive torque from the engine at the same time. This is a good feature not only for off road cars but also on road, because it allows a better control in different road types.

Perfect examples of 4×4 and 4wd cars are the Kia Sportage and the Kia Sorento. This last one is an SUV built for urban living but created by designers who have drawn on their deep-seated understanding of off-road technology. The Kia Sorento is a car that doesn’t compromise on capability and meets all needs for comfort, style and performance.

The Kia Sorento is a 4Wd SUV with two engine choices – petrol or diesel – together with two transmission choices – manual (diesel only) or automatic. The highly capable 4-wheel drive system adds a further dimension to deal with all kinds of driving conditions. If you are looking to buy a 4×4, AWD or 4wd, Kia’s Sorento and Sportage are excellent options.
