My X3 has standard all-season tires, and when I went through the exact same road with it, it never skidded. I could start and stop just like if the road were devoid of ice. I am sure that if I tried to push it, I'd be able to skid, but the point is that my X3 grips better than going on foot. And that, to me, means a lot.
Xdrive i have to say is impressive even if it aint no Landrover
