For example, when going around corners.

Main concern is safety.
My friend up in Canada is looking at buying an suv - a new Honda CR-V , a Jeep Puberty ...er Liberty , and other smallish suvs.

My question mainly pertains to SUVs.
Only if it is fulltime 4wd (locked) or a good awd system. Most awd only drive the other two wheels when needed. Snow tires will make the biggest difference.
