Honda Real Time AWD™ Details, Features and Specs 

Do you love to know what makes your Honda Pilot tick? Do you want to know – how does the Honda Real Time AWD™ system work? To provide drivers with all-weather control and traction, Real Time AWD™ employs an innovative Intelligent Control System to provide improved traction in any climate. The Real Time AWD™ system is an electronic feature that will monitor and control torque distribution to improve traction and performance. When the system detects increased acceleration or hilly terrain, it will divert additional torque to the rear wheels to prevent loss of traction. 

Armed with an array of sensors to monitor traction, when the Real Time AWD™ system detects a loss of traction due to inclement weather and road conditions, the system will react in seconds to redirect torque and regain traction. To ensure that your Honda vehicle provides a dynamic performance, the Real Time AWD™ feature will redistribute torque from the front to the rear axle when cornering to ensure you maintain control. Intelligent Traction Management is available to select Honda Passport, Honda Pilot and Honda Ridgeline models to improve performance with four terrain drive modes – Normal, Snow, Sand and Mud.
