Ford Five Hundred AWD

[Kent McLean]

So I'm watching the mighty Red Sox play in the World Series
(of Baseball, for those outside the U.S.), and an ad for the
Ford Five Hundred catches my eye, because of the "available
AWD".  Was ist dieses?  A browse of their web site finds this:

"Five Hundred is the first sedan in its class with available
all-wheel drive. The electronically controlled All-Wheel-Drive
(AWD) System reacts within 50 milliseconds to distribute up to
100% of the available torque to the rear wheels, ensuring that
you’ll be more surefooted on the road in a variety of
conditions."

Anyone know any more details?
