It is all wheel drive, something like a 40/60 split front to rear to allow speed differentiation at the front wheels when turning. You can tell by the front axle having no actuator to engage, and no selector switch on the dash. A Yukon/Tahoe would be example of selectable 4wd. There was also a 2wd version available that looks the same, only has no front drive axle.
