What does Mitsubishi Super Select 4WD mean? Is Super Select 4WD actually very backward? Mitsubishi Super Select 4WD refers to a set of four-wheel drive used on off-road vehicles between traditional part-time four-wheel drive and traditional full-time four-wheel drive. The system can also be understood as a full-time four-wheel drive system that adds a two-wheel drive mode. Super Select AWD is an electronically assisted SS4-II system, which is Mitsubishi's patented technology. Super-selected four-wheel drive can not only drive in rear-wheel drive mode alone, but also in four-wheel drive mode. The key is that its two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive state can be switched directly during high-speed driving without stopping. In addition, because the super-selected four-wheel drive has an "inter-axle differential", when it is in the four-wheel drive state, the principle is more similar to that of the full-time four-wheel drive. You can use the four-wheel drive state to make high-speed turns on any road. I believe that for many car fans, the super-selected four-wheel drive system is no stranger. This system was invented when the second-generation Pajero (1992) was born. So is the super-selected four-wheel drive actually very backward? In fact, Super Select four-wheel drive has been continuously polished and revised, and it is still in use today, and has become the most advanced and practical four-wheel drive system currently. In order to save fuel on normal paved roads, you can choose the 2H mode. However, models equipped with Torsen center differentials, such as the well-known Overlord and Land Cruiser, cannot achieve two-wheel drive mode. On slippery roads in rain, snow, highways, and mountain roads, you can choose 4H, which is full-time four-wheel drive. Because it is equipped with a center differential, it can also achieve true full-time four-wheel drive, and the power distribution of the front and rear axles is 50:50. (first generation) and 33:67 (second generation), which can improve the maneuverability of complex road conditions and the driving stability of the vehicle. On non-paved roads (sand, muddy roads, etc.), 4HLC can be selected, which is equivalent to the high-speed four-wheel drive of a hard-core part-time four-wheel drive off-road vehicle. At this time, the center differential of the vehicle is locked and the power distribution between the front and rear axles remains unchanged. At 50:50, constant output front and rear. Finally, there is the 4LLC used for getting out of trouble or climbing steep slopes, which is equivalent to the low-speed four-wheel drive of a hardcore part-time four-wheel drive off-road vehicle. At this time, the vehicle's center differential is locked, and the front and rear axles each output 50% power. At the same time, the transfer case switches to a low-speed gear, amplifying the torque to 1.9 times.
