A-TRAC stands for “Active Traction Control” and comes standard on some of Toyota’s 4-wheel-drive models. A-TRAC detects when one or more wheels have lost traction and automatically applies the brakes to the wheel with no traction, allowing it to send power to the wheel with traction.

Does 2wd 4Runner have atrac?

Is atrac as good as a locker?

ATRAC is good for locking up the front or back wheels when one wheel is off the ground. It brakes the free wheel so the other wheel has traction. This would not work with the diff locked since both rear wheels are turning. That’s why it may not be available when the diff is locked.

Does atrac work well?

It is as good as any limited-slip differentials (LSD) on the market. It will only lose to a true locker over rocky terrain, hill climbs, and deep mud. But then again, it is less stressful on the axles than a locker in most circumstances. With ATRAC, it’s like having LSD on the front AND rear axles.

Is Traction Control and Diff Lock the same?

Traction control is an active system. It’s a sophisticated control system. A diff locker is a passive system. Once it is locked, any wheel with more traction will immediately get more torque as the load naturally distributes across the axle.

Is atrac better than MP3?

In some respects it’s unfortunate that MP3 has become the ubiquitous standard for digital music, since it’s simply not a great codec from an audio quality standpoint. The ATRAC system for instance, produces far superior sound quality even using lower bit rates.
