Quick Links:
Super All Wheel Control (S-AWC)
Mitsubishi's Super All-Wheel Control (S-AWC) is an advanced vehicle control system designed to deliver greater traction, stability and handling across a wide range of driving conditions.
Unlike conventional 4WD systems that primarily focus on distributing power between the front and rear wheels, S-AWC integrates four key technologies: 4WD, Active Yaw Control (AYC), Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Active Stability Control (ASC).
By continuously coordinating these systems, S-AWC can adjust how power and braking forces are distributed between the wheels, helping the vehicle maintain grip, corner more confidently and respond predictably to changing road conditions.
Super Select II 4WD System
Mitsubishi's Super Select II 4WD system gives drivers greater control over how power is delivered to the wheels, with four selectable drivetrain settings designed for different driving conditions.
From efficient rear-wheel drive on everyday roads to full-time 4WD and low-range gearing for demanding off-road terrain, Super Select II 4WD provides the flexibility to adapt to the journey ahead.
Unlike conventional part-time 4WD systems, Super Select II 4WD allows drivers to use full-time 4WD on sealed roads, delivering additional traction and stability when conditions change.
