Trucks and crossovers might be the hottest segments in the auto industry. But if you're looking for a machine that'll tackle tough weather and carve corners, it's hard to beat an all-wheel drive sedan. If you're looking for inspiration for which used AWD sedans to hunt down, take a look at our round-up below.
2019 Subaru WRX
If there's a brand that's synonymous with all-wheel drive, it's Subaru - and the Subaru WRX is designed with the enthusiast in mind. The 2019 AWD sedans model comes with a 268-horsepower turbocharged boxer four-cylinder and a six-speed manual transmission. For $36,595, the top-spec WRX STI bumps the power to 310 horsepower, and adds a host of other go fast-goodies, like high-performance suspension, Brembo brakes, and large rear wing. But every WRX is built off the DNA of the company's legendary rally cars.
2019 Nissan Altima
The Nissan Altima was redesigned for 2019. Power comes from a 188-horsepower 2.5-liter four-cylinder, and all-wheel drive is available as a $1,300 option on any trim, making it the most affordable vehicle here. Even the SL trim, which has loads of luxury features like heated leather seats, a nine-speaker stereo, and LED turn signals, comes in at $31,190. So it offers a lot of bang for the buck.
2019 Volvo S90
Safety has always been a focus for Volvo, but the Volvo S90 proves the company is no one-trick pony, as it's both luxurious and fun to drive. If you're looking for sporty thrills, opt for the T6 Momentum. Along with all-wheel drive, it gets a twin-charged engine good for 316 horsepower, and heated leather seats. At $49,850, the T5 Momentum is less expensive, but output drops to 250 horsepower, and the cabin has less frills.
2019 Acura TLX
The Acura TLX A-Spec combines the company's 290-horsepower V6 engine with its all-wheel drive system, a nine-speed automatic, and a performance-tuned suspension. The included ventilated front seats make the already-comfortable cabin a comfortable place to be, and a suite of standard advanced safety features, including adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, and road departure warning are a welcome touch.
2019 Mercedes-Benz S560
When it comes to the sporty sedans, it's hard to beat the Germans, and the Mercedes S560 is rolling proof of why. With all-wheel drive, drivers are treated to a colossally comfortable cabin, a 463-horsepower twin-turbo V8, and driving dynamics which shouldn't be possible in such a large, comfortable vehicle. Simply put, this machine is the complete package, and that's why it's been setting the bar for luxury cars for a generation.
