In honor of the Winter Olympics, Chevy has released a video of the 2010 Camaro driving in less than favorable conditions. While the Camaro doesn’t always get the credit it deserves for winter driving, I think you’ll be impressed by how well it performs in the thick snow. To top it off, all of this was done using 19'' all-season tires.



simply stunning :clap:

Yeah, but who drives Camaros with "All-Season" tires?" Let's be real about this. :sm0:

Its not the snows fault.... its the salt that we lay on the road, right?

Where in CT? I'm from Southington.

Driving in the winter on the highways is a LOT different than that video, you can drive that way with bald tires on ice and snow out in the middle of a field with a little speed, wait until you are on a road with guard rails, semi trucks and turns and intersections. LOL I drove for almost 40 years in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, even drove down Kelly Mtn in Cape Breton in the middle of a storm, but not by choice.

After saying this, a camaro with all season tires can probably be driven with ease at reasonable speed and a driver with at least half a brain on snow and ice, but next time you are driving in a storm or shortly after a storm, check out who is laying upside down with all four wheels spinning... you got it the 4x4's

Cool video, nice to see the car can handle well in the snow

Born and raised in Buffalo and Binghamton, NY...Love it, and miss it! If we get a sprinkle out here, California shuts down! Can't say I really miss the cold though :) Nice video!

Cool video but I agree with one of the comments on youtube:

"This video tells me nothing. It's a bunch of short clips thrown together and it doesn't exemplify true winter driving at all. It's not hard to drive in a straight line...."

But... it is still a fun video to watch and really is for entertainment not to fortify any strong defence for snow handling ability
