Of course the BMW and MB send zip, nada, zero until slippage.

I find the current RS3 looks way better than this render...

Also, the Haldex in the RS3 can be permanently locked up on demand (when dynamic Quattro is selected in the driveselect) for a constant 50-50 split. While it is not a true Torsen Quattro, it still makes for an entertaining drive.
