Base ST to be rear wheel drive for 2022.

Rear wheel drive 2022 ST. FORD authority

Seems like it could be a fun ride. Traction could easily become an issue if it's like my old SRT jeep in rear wheel mode.

If I would have had the option I may have went 2wd. Our ST is the first 4wd I've ever bought.

Are there any other known differences for the 2022?

Probably not a bad way to save some money for folks that want the ST power but live in places that never get snow/sleet conditions where AWD is very helpful

Wondering the same. My spider senses feel like there’s more to it than this. You dont do this kind of change unless you’re trying to answer some of what your performance buyers are asking for. I’m probably being too optimistic though.

The itellegent all wheel drive also contributes to handling stability. Learned this from the ST Experience last year. And the demos proved it! Also, the ST is rear wheel drive centric while on dry pavement.

on line build, doesnt seem to allow it, I added the steeda rear swaybar and springs to mine, handling is much better

I’m very interested to hear the reviews on the rwd vehicle. I think it would be a hoot to drive.
We went AWD on the MY22 as my wife wanted it for our Midwest climate. If it was solely up to me it would have been a hard decision.
I’m guessing 1/4 mile will be similar maybe a tad slower, but have a higher trap speed. In other words, slower launch but harder pull after.
