The Impressive MAZDA i-ACTIV AWD® System


What makes Mazda all-wheel drive vehicles so easy to control on our Brooklyn streets? That would be the advanced i-ACTIV AWD® System found in all Mazda AWD vehicles. This system uses advanced technology to distribute power right where it needs to go in the drivetrain to make sure your car has optimal traction on the road. Let’s take a closer look.

What Does the MAZDA i-ACTIV AWD® System Do?

The i-ACTIV AWD® system in every Mazda all-wheel drive vehicle uses cutting-edge technology to determine which wheels need the most torque and distributes power accordingly. This is critical to navigating our Staten Island streets in rough weather conditions. Proper torque distribution will increase your tire’s grip on the road, giving you more control, which is part of the reason Mazda AWD automobiles are so safe.

What Makes the i-ACTIV AWD® System Different?

There are several all-wheel drive systems out there that monitor wheel speed and engine power to decide where to distribute power to the drivetrain. But Mazda AWD automobiles are different. Only the Mazda i-ACTIV AWD® system monitors 27 different sensors over 200 times per second, taking into consideration g-forces, driver inputs to the braking and steering systems, outside temperature, and windshield wiper activity. The result is you don’t even notice that the system is working because it doesn’t wait for the car to slip before doing its job.
