Jeep Renegade 2014 vs Toyota RAV4 2013

Jeep Renegade 2014: The car is equipped with Active Drive I/LOW, a full-time 4x4 system that requires no driver input. Under normal conditions, this system sends all available torque to the front wheels. If the system detects that the front wheels are moving faster than the rear wheels, it will send power through the power transfer unit to the rear axle to maintain the same wheelspeed. Active Drive Low adds a low-range gear in 4WD Low mode for situations requiring low speeds, such as crawling across big rocks or towing a marine trailer out of the water. The Active Drive Low system provides a 20:1 crawl ratio with significantly controlled throttle response.

Toyota RAV4 2012: It has proactive automatic four-wheel drive with Auto, Lock and Sport modes. In Auto mode, the car has front-wheel drive under normal conditions. If wheel slip is detected, torque is transferred to the rear wheels via an electronically controlled multi-plate clutch. In Sport mode, torque is transferred almost instantaneously between the front and rear wheels to improve cornering performance, with up to 50 percent of engine power going to the rear wheels. Lock mode can be activated at speeds below 40 km/h and provides constant four-wheel drive.
