Q4 - Permanent Four-Wheel Drive. Cutting-edge automotive technology.
On the 3.2 JTS V6 version, the Alfa 159 Sportwagon also offers the very latest permanent 4-wheel drive system with three differentials. The heart of the system is the Twindiff mechanical central differential, an evolution of the Torsen C differential.
In addition, the system also spreads the traction permanently and dynamically over the four driving wheels, thus enabling the car to reach the highest level of active safety and sporting performance.
