Honda CR-V: When Driving / Real Time AWD with Intelligent Control System™*

* Not available on all models

When the system senses a loss of front wheel traction, it automatically transfers some power to the rear wheels. This allows you to utilize all available traction and may increase mobility.

You still need to exercise the same care when accelerating, steering, and braking that you would in a two wheel drive vehicle.
