Ensuring your safety on the road with your Volkswagen vehicle is one of our top priorities. We want to sell you a quality vehicle, but we also want to make sure that you are fully equipped with the necessary safety features.

Our 4MOTION technology is one of those features, providing confidence and reliability on the road in many different types of terrains and weather circumstances.

What Is 4MOTION and How Does It Work?

4MOTION is a permanent four-wheel drive system available on select Volkswagen models. It distributes power from the engine to all four wheels as necessary. This provides stability on the road through a variety of terrains and weather patterns. It can even help keep your vehicle stable on the road in strong cross-winds.

4MOTION technology is especially important for drivers in Riverhead, and the surrounding areas. When winter comes, and snow begins to cover the road, it is paramount to have the best driving system that will give you the most traction on the road. That is why many of our customers trust 4MOTION technology on their Volkswagen vehicle.
