Ford Mondeo - Intelligent all wheel drive - hillman

I saw an advertisement in the New Scientist magazine for an intelligent all wheel drive system for the Mondeo. When I looked at the Ford website to find out more about it, the website wasn't any help. When I type in the search term 'All Wheel Drive' the screen changes to the Transit van. Does anybody know anything ?

Search for Ford Vignale - its a Mondeo with a posh name, an expensive price tag and 4WD!

And horrific depreciation, given that Mondeos aren't selling as well as they did and are apparently not as good to drive as the previous versions.

They may sell some to those who don't want a Passat following 'Dieselgate': those that do sell will be very good secondhand buys in a few years' time.

I looked at both of the Fusion and the Vignale websites. The Vignale website is very simple and doesn't give much information. The Fusion website is the total opposite, easy to navigate and lots of information, including the price. Lots of lovely photos, BUT where is the handbrake ? Perhaps the handbrake applies itself, everything else seems to be 'assisted'.
