[QUOTE="ALBundy, post: 543704, member: 15"] The main difference is the differentials used. The Audi (and the rest of the VW family including Cayenne) uses a Torsen center differential (Torsen short for Torque Sensing) where as the Xdrive uses a power transfer box made up of multiple wet plate cluthes, controlled electronically. There is much more to it, but BMW is really into some fancy differential engineering like what is in the X6 and the upcoming F10 M5 where a newer ///M Differential will be revealed. [/QUOTE]
