You likely know that a standard all-wheel-drive system engages the rear wheels using mechanical means to improve traction and performance.

Honda Real Time AWD™ with Intelligent Control System begins with a front-wheel-drive vehicle and adds a rear differential. If you drive through a rough patch on Irvine roads, and your Honda senses that it’s losing traction, the system will engage the rear differential with a multi-plate clutch system. The process of engaging the rear wheels shifts the vehicle into operating with AWD.
When a traditional AWD system is engaging it can have a lag before it kicks into operation. The Honda Real Time AWD™ and Intelligent Control System, aims to make the transition virtually instantaneous. If your rear wheels are required, an electric motor on the transmission will seamlessly engage them. The process is so quick and smooth, you likely won’t even notice it has happened.
