GAC revealed details about the Toyota RAV4 all-wheel drive analog for the Russian Federation

The GAC GS4 crossover, equipped with an all-wheel drive system, will be available in Russia in September. This is stated in the message of the Chinese manufacturer, which was received by Izvestia on August 20.

The GAC GS4 all-wheel drive is powered by a two-liter gasoline engine that develops 231 hp (380 Nm) paired with the classic Aisin 8-speed automatic transmission with a torque converter. Exactly the same powertrain is installed on the flagship GS8 crossover. The average consumption per 100 km in a mixed cycle is 9.2 liters.

The all-wheel drive transmission is based on the sixth-generation Haldex electrohydraulic clutch from BorgWarner, which acts as an axle differential. It automatically connects at the first sign of a slip and redistributes the torque between the front and rear wheels. There are seven driving modes. The model is also promised an expanded list of equipment. Details about prices and trim levels will be announced later.

GAC introduced the GS4 crossover in Russia in March this year, the price of the new product starts from 3 million rubles. The model is offered in one configuration with a 1.5-liter turbo engine with a capacity of 170 hp (250 Nm) in conjunction with a 7-speed robot with two clutches, front-wheel drive only. With a body length of 4685 mm, the wheelbase is 2750 mm.

GAC representatives told Izvestia that the GS4 crossover is represented in a large segment, which previously had a Toyota RAV4 model, and many draw a parallel between it and the GS4.
