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.
Pros: capable in ice and snow
Vehicle:
Toyota Prius
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.
Pros: performed adequately
Vehicle:
Toyota
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.
Pros: much better ride
Cons: stay away all-seasons
Vehicle:
Toyota
So glad I have snow tires. They make my Prius feel like a hummer.
Pros: Prius feels like hummer
Vehicle:
Toyota Prius
Yea. Also. 17+. Has hill assist for getting rolling uphill which is a nice option.\n\nOtherwise. It’s good as long as you keep up on the maintenance.. I bought a 15’ with 120k miles and did all the major recent work when I got it and it’s a great car\n\nHandles well in the rain even on those stock tires n wheels. Good. OG 86 car…
Pros: handles well in rain, good maintenance
Vehicle:
Toyota
Mileage: 120000 km
It's a good little car. Fast enough to be fun but no so much to be too stupid. Well balanced. \n\nSpend a bit less money on the car, and buy a second set of wheels. \n\nYour best looking wheels out some good 200 tread wear summer tires on. Vitour P1 or Rival RS if you want them to last a while. \n\nLeast favorite wheels out Continental DWS-06+ all seasons (or proper four season tires if you're in a snowbelt state).\n\nThis is a car that responds well to grip.
Pros: good balance, responds well to grip
Cons: Continental DWS-06+ all seasons
Vehicle:
Toyota
I used to daily my GT3 until it started feeling normal and lost that "specialness".
Pros: special driving experience
Cons: lost specialness
Vehicle:
Porsche 911
I had both tires for 6 month each. There isnt really any apparent difference in fuel economy.
Pros: no apparent difference
Vehicle:
Toyota
Almost did the same thing with my 992.2 GTS with the same tires. I was doing 10kph UNDER the speed limit since I was all over the fucking place. Horrible tire for the rain.
Cons: horrible for rain
Vehicle:
Porsche
I own a 991.2 GT3 and its a terrible daily. No lane keep or radar cruise. No parking sensors. No keyless entry. Fixed carbon buckets. No heated steering wheel. Loud tire noise. etc.
Cons: loud tire noise, no sensors
Vehicle:
Porsche 911
