★ Top Answer
The all-wheel drive system of the Chevy Equinox employs a high-range transfer case within the vehicle to transfer power to the rear wheels either manually or in response to traction issues. Primarily ideal for snow or low-traction conditions, the system typically operates in front-wheel drive mode. However, if the Equinox's traction control system senses an issue, it can activate the all-wheel drive feature to boost power to the rear wheels and prevent slipping during aggressive acceleration.
