If vehicle speed drops below 20 mph
(32 km/h), or if the engine is not
running smoothly, you should
downshift to the next lower gear.
You may have to downshift two or
more gears to keep the engine
running smoothly or for good
performance.

Drive Systems

All-Wheel Drive

With this feature, engine power is
sent to all four wheels at all times.
This is like four-wheel drive, but there
is no separate lever or switch to
engage or disengage the rear axle.
It is fully automatic, and adjusts itself
as needed for road conditions.
