Kia Stinger (CK) 2018-2023 Service Manual: Using All Wheel Drive (AWD)

The All Wheel Drive (AWD) System delivers engine power to front and rear wheels for maximum traction. AWD is useful when extra traction is required, such as when driving slippery, muddy, wet, or snow-covered roads. If the system determines there is a need for four wheel drive, the engine's driving power is distributed to all four wheels automatically.
