QTV is also based on rear active differential (just like BMWs DPC), while front axle torque distribution is controlled via central Quattro differential - while left-right torque distribution on front wheels is managed by ABS & ESC systems.
Mind that BMW M3, M5 & M6 cars already feature rear fully variable M-diff (with up to 100% lock). While non-M models will get the DPC.
I'm not sure which Audi cars will feature QVT - yet I'm sure the sporty models will get it initially (RS, perhaps even S).
