What is a vehicle’s differential? There’s a gearbox between the drive wheels of your new Subaru. This gearbox works with your vehicle’s transmission to send power from the engine to the front and rear axles, which stabilizes your vehicle’s turning. When you turn, for the best grip, you need the outside wheels to turn faster than the inside wheels, and a differential uses gears to accomplish this.

Subaru vehicle systems include Viscous Center Differential (VCD), Active Torque Split (ATS), Variable Torque Distribution (VTD), and Driver Controlled Center Differential (DCCD).
