Drive systems:

Four Wheel Drive — Still found on many large pickups and SUVs. Some trucks have manual locking front hubs, some hubs lock automatically. Some pickups come with automatic four wheel drive (4WD) with the vehicle's traction management system deciding when it should be applied.

All Wheel Drive — AWD requires a centre differential and is always engaged. However, many AWD systems drive primarily through either front or rear wheels unless a slip is detected.
