It just depends on the grip the rear 'wheel' gets.
For a highway car a single rear wheel drive would be absolutely harrowing on winter highways in my area. Apparently most people have never seen interstate highways with a slush track down the middle of each lane. I will have to get a camera and start documenting the road conditions (and local solar panel snow cover) that I experience daily for 1/3 of the year.
