Has anybody done the roller test on the 2023 Prius AWD? I haven't been able to find one. I want to see how good the AWD system is. The last generation AWD wasn't that great from what I saw on some videos.
TBH, it should not be an issue any more. Prior Prius Power 7 hp (5 kW) Torque 40 lb·ft (54 N·m) 2023+ Power 40 hp (30 kW) Torque 62 lb·ft (84 N·m)
I saw the roller test. So, I think it would be similar. But, would like to see the 2023 Prius AWD in action. Hopefully somebody can get hands on one and test it.
Here's the Gen 4 test: My take: having more HP/Torque will help some scenarios, but the power distribution system determines the pass/fail in the most challenging scenario (three wheels on rollers.) I'm guessing most AWD systems fail that, so no real surprise there.
