Great vehicle for snow and ice in mountains of northern Idaho
The last 4 miles of our drive home is a 1000 ft climb in snow and ice in winter, and our driveway is long, steep and almost always like a skating rink. We bought this after a test drive up and down icy hills. The test drive performance was great, and the car has performed really well since with studded tires. The only time in three winters that we had a problem was during an early snowstorm, we didn't have the studded tires on and we were driving on one donut due to a flat on our way home. I think we would still have made it if it hadn't been for the donut. There are some really cool features - brights turn down automatically in auto, and speed adjusts to follow the car in front of you. When we switch cars, we really miss those. Overall great car - we have been very happy with it.
