Can all wheel drive cars do burnouts?
Burnouts are most difficult to perform in four-wheel drive and all-wheel drive cars, as they have better traction than FWD or RWD vehicles. It requires significantly more powerful engines to break all four tires loose at the same time, and the tires will spin for only a short while before all four gain traction.
Can you drift in a AWD?
Despite what the other answers say drifting is 100% possible in an AWD car. Drifting is simply controlling oversteer. That does not mean every AWD car can drift, most can't and it being an automatic makes it even less likely to drift properly. Most manufactures love to tag on the AWD feature to get more buyers.
