Maybe. My wife's BMW is pretty decent in the snow too. Again, approx.
50/50 distribution and RWD.
Best snow car I owned was an '82 Tercel. FWD, but with Spridet sized
155/13 tires (and a Spridget sized 1500cc motor and 5spd). Never got
stuck anywhere with that car.

Subject: Re: What makes a good snow car?
My pick up truck is a total disaster in the snow which leads me to
believe most of the SUVs which are glorified pick ups, are just as bad
in the snow.
It has a 80/20 weight distribution and rear wheel drive.
I am wondering if the 50/50 weight has anything to do with snow
driveability?
The Sprites are all really good in the snow too, again, close to a 50/50
weight.
