How this works

Illustrative wheel states and power flow, not a prediction of grip, stopping distance or traction-control performance. No low range or driver-operated axle lockers. Standard front and rear differentials are open. Terrain Management adjusts vehicle response; selecting a drive mode does not create missing 4WD hardware. The build control changes the fitted drive system; unverified option prices need a quote.

Unverified option prices require a quote; V6 output varies by emissions state.
