The weather has been very december today. We have almost got one foot of snow during the day. I was excited if and how the fiat 500 swisscleandrive would feel on it. The drive started by plowing through a snow pile on the side of the road in order to get onto the street. That felt strong with 4x4.
On snow covered streets the tires are the most important factor for traction, even with 4x4 and anti block breaks. But brand new winter-tires AND a full battery to keep up the four wheel drive seem to bring me anywhere. Through the piles, up the hills, over the slush, past the ice and into the best powder covered Switzerland. Maybe that is why we call it swiss ... In weather like this I am happy we are emphasizing the extra power and 4x4 drive of our system rather than climate warming. It all has its time.
