Ok isn't good enough for many places in the country, including where I live. A consideration I make when purchasing a vehicle is how it will handle on snow packed roads. Many here don't think of that, and that results in missed work and car accidents.

The extra weight of EVs could be off set by good tires, but I'm just not sure what is available for those huge wheels Tesla has. An EV that has more rubber on the tires can certainly perform well. If a full size truck with 4x4 can handle well in the snow with A/T tires, an EV can too with good A/S tires.
