New AWD system: The 2016 Hyundai Tucson gets a new all-wheel drivetrain, developed in conjunction with Magna Powertrain and similar in operation to the one found in the Hyundai Genesis luxury sedan. It favours the front wheels in normal driving conditions, but can send power back to the rear wheels to enhance traction. A lock mode can also be activated for extra slippery road conditions, while a feature called Active Cornering Control brakes the inside wheels while cornering and sending power to the outside wheels for better grip.
