Lexus RX 350 AWD Test in the snow | A useless AWD LOCK button!

The Lexus RX uses Dynamic Torque Control AWD, which processes information from several sensors, including wheel-speed sensors and steering angle sensors. Based on this data, it instantaneously routes engine power to the rear wheels to maximize tractability on varying surfaces and road conditions. All-wheel drive lock mode can be used when a large amount of drive power needs to be applied to all the wheels, such as when the vehicle gets stuck in the mud, and you need to free it. The torque of the engine is distributed to the rear wheels to the maximum extent possible under driving conditions. All-wheel drive lock mode is canceled when the vehicle speed exceeds 25 mph (40 km/h). Real-life test note: The Lexus RX 350 AWD can be really fun in the snow!
