> AWD != 4x4. AWD + traction control absolutely helps driving on snow and ice with appropriate tyres.

Too late buddy. The way manufacturers abused AWD, 4WD and 4x4 terms they can mean anything now

Which manufacturer is using AWD incorrectly?
Dodge. They call their Charger implementation AWD, but it’s RWD only until a slip, then it engages the front axel.

They fooled me, and it drove like crap on snow. Always wanted to slide.
