4MOTION is Volkswagenâs permanent four-wheel drive system.The 4MOTION permanent four-wheel drive system from Volkswagen distributes the engineâs power to all four wheels as required. On models where the engine is installed longitudinally, a Torsen differential splits the drive force between the front and rear axles.urthermore, 4MOTION can be combined with all dynamics control systems such as electronic stabilisation program (ESP) , traction control (ASR), engine drag torque control (MSR) and electronic differential lock (EDL).
The first generation 4Matic system was originally a complex electronically controlled system with automatically engaging four-wheel drive (4WD), the system employs locking central and rear differentials to provide additional traction in slippery conditions.ome newer versions of 4Matic are true AWD as the system remains active at all times. Sophisticated engine management and ABS systems control the amount of torque transferred to each wheel allowing the system to be effective at any speed.
