Abstract
A method includes switching a vehicle to a 4WD state by connecting a disconnector, maintaining the disconnector in the connected state for a predetermined maintenance time, determining whether a condition to be switched to a 2WD state is satisfied when the predetermined maintenance time period elapses, and disconnecting the disconnector when the condition to be switched to the 2WD state is satisfied.
