Can you drive your awd vehicle on sand?

Answer 1

Yes. While a vehicle with AWD doesn't enjoy the added benefit of having high and low range gears as a normal 4x4 vehicle does, for most purposes, it will do fine - especially in less tricky off-road situations like sand. Try to stick to driving on hard sand where possible, and remember that maintaining a constant, slower speed is the best way to drive in sand. Stopping in softer sand can make starting back up again tougher. Likewise, driving too quickly in sand can make the going tough, and the handling a little less predictable.
