The energy lock allows flexible adjustment of front and rear axle torque. It works with the four-wheel electronic limited-slip system. When a wheel sinks in mud or sand, the system quickly limits power to the slipping wheel. It transfers torque to the wheel with traction. This helps the vehicle escape easily. The driver does not need to floor the accelerator. The vehicle can get free with ease.
