2013 Outlander LS vs GT
#1

I live in Canada (Vancouver) and am about to get a 2013 Outlander LS (G2). In doing my research I had a hard time reconciling between features in the LS and the GT (XLS?) because most reviews are in the US or Australia (let alone getting mixed search results with the new model being released in under the 2013 year in some markets).
For example, I asked the sales rep if this 2013 LS had SAWC and he was confident that it did, but I'm having trouble finding that info through online research because it's usually only on GT and XLS. I've also heard that Canadian models don't use FUSE for the bluetooth system.
Does anyone have - or know where I can find - a comprehensive list of differences between those three models? I know it's a b!tch because of international differences, but any insight would be hugely appreciated!

Thanks for the link and quick reply, Vadimus! To my knowledge the GT is V6 as well, no?
Interestingly Yahoo lists the LS as having "All Wheel Control" (different from SAWC?), but lists the XLS as having "automatic w/manual mode." Seems strange not to mention SAWC, but also the LS has a manual shift mode, just not the paddle shifters.

GT is top of the line. Pretty much like my XLS, add or take some differences introduced in 2012.
AWC is different from S-AWC. Basically S-AWC on Outlander is AWC+active front differential.
3.0 V6 comes with 6 speed AT while 2.4 I4 mates with CVT.
Either have a "manual" mode (being rather imitated on CVT).
