V70 AWD
Gripping performance.
We can't prevent bad weather. But we can
certainly help you drive in it.
The V70 All Wheel Drive (AWD) gives you the
grip, power and control you need to conquer ice,
snow or rain. The car literally reads the road.
A viscous coupling permanently transfers the
drive to all four wheels. In normal driving on a
straight road, most engine power goes to the
front wheels. When accelerating, cornering or on
a slippery surface, power is progressively
distributed to the rear axle. Front wheelspin is
controlled by Volvo's Traction Control System,
TRACS. A limited slip differential acts on the
rear wheels. The result is that power is always
delivered to the wheels with the most grip.
The AWD includes special chassis settings for
optimum handling. Self-levelling suspension keeps
the car level when carrying loads. A 193 bhp
petrol engine with a light pressure turbo ensures
rugged, dependable towing and relaxed,
capable cruising.
