All-Wheel-Drive System: Full-time, mechanical all-wheel drive delivers torque to all four wheels, all the time. The center differential allows front and rear driveshafts to rotate at different speeds as required for smooth operation on dry pavement. The system provides added traction on snow, ice and other low-traction surfaces without having to be switched on and off.

Electronic Stability Program (ESP): Electronic Stability Program enhances driver control and helps maintain directional stability under all conditions. It provides the greatest benefit in critical driving situations such as turns and emergency lane changes, and is especially valuable when driving on mixed surface conditions such as snow, ice or gravel. If there's a discernible difference between what the driver asks through the steering and the vehicle's path, ESP applies selective braking and throttle input to put the vehicle back onto the driver's intended path.

All-speed Traction Control System: Senses drive-wheel slip and applies individual brakes to the slipping wheel(s) and can reduce excess engine power until traction is regained.

Anti-lock Brake System (ABS): Senses and prevents wheel lockup, offering improved steering control under extreme braking and/or slippery conditions.

All-season Tires: Provide enhanced traction in a variety of conditions including rain, snow and ice.
