Hyundai to get Haldex AWD
Hyundai and its Kia brand are planning to launch a range of new AWD models in coming years, with engineers currently testing a new prototype drivetrain sourced from Sweden’s Haldex. Hyundai is expected to use the same XWD system and electronic differential offered by Saab, making it the first Asian carmaker to use Haldex mechanicals.

Haldex already supplies AWD systems to Volkswagen, Audi, Bugatti, Seat and Skoda as well as Ford’s Land Rover and Volvo brands. In years to come, Haldex will supply drivetrains to GM’s Opel/Vauxhall, Cadillac and Chevrolet brands and possibly for use in the next-gen Corvette. Read Article

Excellent news. That will create a nice price war in drivelines and make AWD systems that use Torsen more competitive.

Maybe we should start a petition.

I don't mind the FWD but RWD would do wonders for their American image and sales.
