quattro vs. xdrive test

Rollers test Audi Q5 vs. BMW X3(Edit)

This test "compares" the Audi Q5 quattro with torsen center differential and the BMW X3 xDrive all wheel drive. For this test, the BMW representatives exposed the weakness of the TorSen differential (see quattro evolutions), which is inability to lock fully when no traction is sensed on one of the axles.

In this particular condition the BMW's all wheel drive is superior to Audi's TorSen-based quattro.

The BMW's xDrive is technically more similar to Haldex all wheel drive, which is used on V.A.G. vehicles with transverse engine mounting. BMW can be compared to VW Tiguan, and AwdWiki.com believes VW would behave in this test the same way as the BMW.
