Try it in Ashiari with snowfall.

Later, when my husband saw the information that there was snow in Ashiu, he immediately went to drive on the snowy road in his Cayenne.

The temperature was about -3.5°C to -4°C. There was not much snow on the ground, but the road surface was well trodden.Slightly icy ground underneathShe said that she had become a Her husband had been

At any rate, I ran it like a normal runner, and it didn't feel at all like it was slipping.If you accelerate quite exaggeratedly, the traction control works by slipping and idling.But nothing happened with gas pedal work at about the level of exiting a stoplight a little early.
After all, it seems to be a tire that provides very strong longitudinal traction.

He said.

Since it was Ashi Ari, he tried the curves without hesitation and found that there was almost no sense of understeer or oversteer.

If you ask me if it was zero, I would say there was a slight discrepancy, but not so much that I would consider it "slippery" as a driver. I can go around a curve in Ashi Ari at a bit of a high pace for a snow road, and it'll grip and drive fine.I thought the tires were very strong in the lateral direction.

This was the case.

Afterwards, I dared to try various tests on icy road surfaces as much as possible, and found that the ABS intervention of the brakes was indeed a little earlier than that of domestic studless tires, and that the brakes were not as strong as those of the studless tires.Traction performance on icy surfaces is reduced.He thought it was a good idea.

The sense is that the performance is not half as good, but it is like 20-30% less.

However, he said that his impression of acceleration and slipperiness on curves did not seem that different from that of domestic studless tires.

When braking downhill with normal force, it tries to stop firmly, so I am not worried about it. On the other hand, if I step on the brake a little too hard, it swings slightly from side to side, but I think this is normal for any tires on snow.

Then, when stepping on the brakes at the level of emergency braking, the driver had the impression that the ABS would work harder and cause vibrations, eventually resulting in a longer braking distance.

Finally.

My husband, who drove a Cayenne with winter tires on snowy roads, had this to say.

In general, I don't think winter tires should be used on icy mirror burns in Hokkaido or other places where it's safer to use them.Enough for people living in Kansai and urban areas to go to nearby ski resorts.I think.

The driving performance, especially on snow-covered roads, is superb, and I can assure you that, above all, the stability on highways, straight line stability, and cornering on winding roads are at an absolutely satisfactory level.

Winter tires are highly recommended for those who drive mostly on snow plowed roads, dry roads, or roads with rain or sleet, and occasionally on snowy roads.
