You can see this BMW seemingly making quick work of the ice. What you don't see is the car completely stuck for twenty minutes. The owner borrowed our shovel and our ice chisel to get to this stage.The problem seemed to be the low ground clearence. Sorry no audio for this quickie.

  • He had to borrow a shovel and and some other tools to get to the point you

    see in the video. I personally have no opinion on the car. : )

  • You're right. It didn't. : )

  • More good advice : )

  • Nah it's not a New York thing. I have no opinion really on the ability or equiptment on the car. I just presented what happened. I have no bias here. Everyone that commented mentioned tires and I agree. The transmission type is important yes. My car has an auto and the tires are 225/60/16 and NEVER had a problem in the snow. Sometimes the ability of the driver also has to be factored in. There's no testament here lol. Thanks for your comment. Be well.

  • I'm a huge fan of top gear myself hazemvirus and I have to agree about Clarkson lol.

    I appreciate your advice and your comment. Happy Holidays!

  • Right on! In New York City we are not permitted to use studded tires.

see all

  • I do not know, what you all opines. With rear wheel drive he would never come out of this parking lot.

    First he had a few problems, but then he had good traction.

  • That Honda Crv in front would have no problems

  • needs some bridgestone blizzaks, then he'd be cruising in the snow off road :D

  • only a New Yorker would post this video as a testament to some kind of all-wheel drive system lol In the past 6 years I've never had a problem driving in the snow in New York in my SVT Focus. Good tires are the key for traction, second most important thing is whether the car is automatic or a manual, which usually fares better given that it's a true manual with a lever and a clutch pedal (since some BMW and VW/Audi owners prefer to call their Tiptronics a manual :))) )

  • @Chrisoftheghosts that X6 video was total BS, im a huge fan of TG but when clarkson hate a car he shows that its rubbish even if its not, my uncle has the X6 and in winter he used proper winter tires and it was good. and if someone want to buy a car for off roading then go get yourself a range rover or G class not X6
