Does the new 1.7-litre Kia Sportage have four-wheel drive?

A silly question, but could you please tell me if the Kia Sportage 1.7 two-wheel drive can go into four-wheel drive by the press of a switch? I'm going to buy one of these cars, but not quite sure which model as I really need a four-wheel drive for when it snows and where we live.

It doesn't have 4WD. No 1.7 diesel does.
