As this post note, it is more a question of whether the DRIVER is good in snow and ice as opposed to the car being good in snow and ice. I have been in northern Sweden, riding with a native Swede during a true Swedish blizzard. Cr was equipped with studded true snow tires, and he slowed waaaay down to accomodate the slippery conditions. Non sudden braking, acceleration or turns. Looking way ahead to anticipate tings, and leaving a lot of space between vehicles.

As my father used to say, the most important thing in the car during such tricky conditions is the nut that holds the steering wheel.
