Which Ford Models Have All-Wheel Drive?

When drivers shop for their next capable vehicle, many prefer models with the enhanced traction of all-wheel drive (AWD). Designed to give you extra grip on and off the Omaha, NE roads, all-wheel drive gives you peace of mind during inclement weather and when venturing off the beaten path. That’s why the Ford lineup boasts all-wheel drive capability on its most popular vehicles.

Learn more about all-wheel drivetrains and the selection of Ford AWD vehicles in this guide from TNT Ford before visiting our dealership to find a new Ford SUV or pickup that suits your demanding Des Moines lifestyle.

What Is All-Wheel Drive (AWD)?

Before exploring the lineup of Ford AWD cars, it’s important to understand what all-wheel drive entails. Many commuter vehicles, such as small crossover SUVs, sedans, and sports models, come with front-wheel or rear-wheel drivetrains, which means the torque produced by the vehicle’s engine is directed to either the front or rear axles. While typically better for fuel economy, these single-axle drivetrains are limited in the amount of traction they can provide.

Ford AWD vehicles, however, send torque to both front and rear axles via differentials, giving Lincoln, NE drivers a more evenly distributed grip, regardless of road conditions. In addition, vehicles equipped with the advanced Ford Intelligent AWD system can monitor your steering wheel angle, accelerator pedal position, acceleration and turning rates, and wheel speeds to send torque to the wheels that need it most, improving handling and preventing slippage.
