vehicle's corrosion protection and therefore needs to be checked regularly.
The most common types of paint damage are minor stone chips, scratches and damage
to e.g. the edges of fenders, doors and bumpers. To help prevent corrosion, paint
damage should be rectified immediately.
Your vehicle is constructed with protection against corrosion.
Corrosion protection for the body consists of modern metallic protective coatings
on the sheet metal, a high-quality painting process, corrosion-protected and minimized

All-wheel drive (AWD1), also called fourwheel drive, means that power
is distributed to all four wheels, which improves traction.
To achieve the best traction, power is automatically directed to the wheels that
have the best grip. The system continuously calculates the need for torque to the
rear wheels, and can immediately redistribute up to half of the engine's torque
to the rear wheels...
