4x4 can make negotiating Calgary roads during the winter much easier. Though some vehicles rely on permanent all-wheel drive, others have shiftable AWD. For example, Jeep Active Drive I is standard on 2021 Cherokee and Compass models. This design has full-time FWD, but you can engage the rear axle when needed to get extra traction. Many Ram pickups boast a similar option.Â
What is the advantage of a changeable drivetrain?Â
Since FWD cars and trucks require less power, it leads to better fuel efficiency. Engaging the AWD system only when you need it can save money at the gas pump.
