Torque... that is the key reason xDrive has a key advantage. The high torque now so common, simply overwhelms the rear tyre grip. |

You could, but it's about as tenuous as teaston's view that AWD is technically better in every way!

One of the earliest 'modern' turbo diesels I drove was a Golf Mk 5 2.0d. I hated how it threw everything at you at around 1800rpm, show over by 3k. Made for very uncomfortable and surging progress.
