I’ve driven my Pops 2020 Passport in the worst Canadian Winters with Toyo Observe G3-ICE snow tires and it’s a tank. Buddy’s rolling A/S’s for sure. People still think just cuz you’ve got AWD you can ride A/S. That’s an average morning for me out on my part of Canada. You’ve got to pay to play in the real winters.
He’s clearly having some fun considering my front wheel drive accord was great in the snow 😂 I have to edit this and say I live in New England so I am very experienced in driving in the snow. Drove a Lincoln continental with low profile tires and rear wheel drive for two years with no problems and lived on the bottom of a hill! 😂 you get used to it around here
If you live in a place where you get a lot of snow, it's good to have 2 sets of tires. One for the winter and one that's all season. Winter tires are more softer material, and they grab and release snow so you get better traction pretty much like off-road tires. You have to change them when the warmer weather comes because they will wear out when the pavement is warmer or hot.
Subaru outbacks are NOT better than the Passport in any condition. Many off road and severe driving condition videos have already proven that. Honda uses Acuras SH AWD system which uses actual clutches in the differentials to control traction. Unlike Subaru that uses brakes controlled by a computer.
@@globaltraveler2381 clutch based torque vectoring only makes a difference in performance driving, cornering etc. For regular driving on snow however, both clutch based torque vectoring and brake based torque vectoring work about the same, as long as its not for performance driving. The Subaru Wilderness models do great on snow, but only when equipped with appropriate snow tires.
