LineartronicTM CVT (Continuously Variable
Transmission) includes 6-speed manual mode
and steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters.
2.5i and 2.5i Premium: Optional.
2.5i Limited: Standard.
Models equipped with 6-speed manual transmissions utilize a viscous-type locking center differential with torque distribution normally configured at a
50/50-split front-to-rear. If wheel speed differs between front and rear axles, the system helps distribute power to the wheels with the most traction.
Models equipped with Lineartronic™ CVT utilize an electronically controlled variable transfer clutch to distribute power to where traction is needed.
Sensors monitor parameters such as wheel slippage, throttle position and braking, to help determine torque distribution and direct it to the wheels
with optimum traction.
Models equipped with 5-speed automatic transmission utilize an electronically controlled variable transfer clutch in conjunction with a planetary-type
center differential and a viscous-type limited-slip rear differential. Torque distribution is normally configured at a performance-oriented rear-wheel-biased
45/55-split front-to-rear. Sensors monitor parameters such as wheel slippage, throttle position and braking to help determine torque distribution and
direct it to the wheels with optimum traction.

VDC electronic stability control utilizes sensors which constantly monitor wheel speeds, steering angle, brake pressure, vehicle yaw rate and lateral g-forces. If VDC detects a difference between the driver’s intended path and the one the vehicle is actually taking, VDC applies braking power
and/or reduces engine torque to help correct vehicle path. Standard on all models
VDC also incorporates an all-wheel, all-speed traction control system which senses a loss of traction and applies braking force to the slipping wheel
or wheels as necessary to maintain vehicle motion.
