How does Audi's Quattro all-wheel drive system function?

I've heard that Audi's Quattro system is renowned for its superior grip and handling. Can someone provide an explanation of how it works and any advantages it offers compared to traditional AWD systems?

Audi's Quattro system uses a center differential to distribute power between the front and rear axles, providing optimal traction and stability in all driving conditions. This allows for better handling and control, especially in adverse weather conditions such as snow or rain.
