    Gosh! Thanks for this exhaustive review of the Rav hybrid in snow! I can't think of a single question.

    Is the Continental Conti Viking Contact6 a directional tire? If it does than your Rear Right tire is facing the wrong way...

    so do you like the AWd system in the snow? compared to a conventional driveshaft?

    • @irmist
      @irmist  6 років тому +5

      It's good! In most cases more than enough! However if you are stuck and trying to move from a point of a full stop, the car is acting more like FWD, than AWD. On a slippery conditions RAV4 is really very stable and you feel that AWD is helping you a lot. For everyday use AWD is amazing, but not good for off-roading (snow is not a problem). I would choose a car with conventional driveshaft if you do a lot of offroading.

      Thanks. I'm considering one for my wife. IT would be mostly snow/ice, nothing serious. We do have a 2004 Sienna AWD which have the older AWD system as the rear differential is engaged at all time and its amazing in the snow.

      Under snow, sand and in Offroad it's amazing. just see my photo with my AWD hybrid RAV4. I crossed a ford of 80 cm without problem. The batteries are well water insulated.

      Would the non-hybrid Rav4 awd be just as capable, or are there differences between the awd gas / hybrid versions?

    • @philamonmlle
      @philamonmlle 6 років тому +1

      It's very different system. AWD gas is with a bridge and a viscous coupler, An hybrid is a front electric motor and another independent at the back, the allocation of the power F/B is managed by the computer.

    Not a real test coz you went through a paved snow route.

      I hope this is a joke? On this rav4 is mounted best winter tires of the year "Continental ContiVikingContact 6". You cannot get any better than this.

      @Jason99942 6 років тому

      Before test driving this vehicle, did you cross-shop CR-V awd / Forester etc?
      Are you comfortable driving on a hwy in a blizzard with this vehicle?
