Also with torque vectoring and TC the pwoer could be sent all to one wheel, front or rear! But the car does always have all 4 wheels driven all of the time (unless you have a 2014MY on Si4 or a 2015MY diesel that has the active drive system option). Yes, I accept that (I did say that 95% was to the front which therefore means that 5% goes to the rear) but the car is, in this state, which it is during all normal driving conditions, effectively front wheel drive rather than conventional fixed four-wheel drive.
