As drmiller already pointed out, all that driveline stuff is spinning anyhow, so not putting power to it will make no difference.
While on this topic, I wonder of Subaru will ever reverse their decision to go 100% AWD.
They are competing directly with all the other manufacturers in segments where AWD is of little or no benefit and has very measurable liabilities.
i realize that there is some benefit in reducing numbers of assembly lines, but, they make enough cars that that shouldn't be a big issue. I suspect it is more of a marketing gimick as it is with Audi.
