The XT was available with both [[manual transmission|manual]] and [[automatic transmission|automatic]] transmissions. 85-87 XT Turbos were available as either [[front-wheel drive]] or part-time [[four-wheel drive]], while the 85-87 XT non turbo cars were only available as front-wheel-drive. The part-time four-wheel-drive system, titled "On-Demand", was selectable by a [[push button]] atop the shifter.
