Although the VT differed from the standard Diablo in a number of ways, by far the most notable change was the addition of all wheel drive, which made use of
a viscous center differential (a modified version of LM002's 4WD system).

In line with this development philosophy, Mitsubishi developed its first high performance four - wheel drive vehicle in 1987, when it equipped the Galant VR - 4 with «Dynamic Four», which featured a
center differential - type full - time four - wheel drive system (this system incorporated a
