My AWD gen5 Prius is surprisingly capable in the ice and snow with the stock all season tires. I live in northern Indiana and just drove home through a blizzard last week. Was able to cruise comfortably at 40mph in pretty much the worst conditions.
On my second RAV4 hybrid, both have performed adequately with winter tires with a few inches of snow on un-plowed roads in New England. The winter tires are the key however as others have said.
Fast forward to my 1st of 3 Ravs with much better snow tires and it was a much better ride. So, Ravs are very decent in snow, no\nIssue\u2026 BUT get good snow tires and I\u2019d stay away from winter rated all-seasons tires if you have to drive in regular snowy areas.
My 2016 came with Dunlop Sport Maxx RT summer tires, I knew from 8 years with my 2002 WRX that I was immediately going to have to pickup a second set.
Then I got Dunlop summer tires and they are fantastic in the summer.
Corolla 49 k on dunlop got ok tread life still, did drive carefully
I had Dunlops on my ML and found they wore quickly. I went back to Continental ContiTrac.
Another annoyance were the Fast wearing factory Dunlop tires I swapped out at 12k mi on the odo.
I personally experienced a blow out from Dunlop tires in the 90’s. Although they have improved since then i still wouldnt risk it.
We all know they are lackluster tires.
