Caerphilly. Need to travel to Merthyr tomorrow, so hoping that it will all disappear overnight! Your side usually gets more snow - I hope you don't get problems. Wish we had our Evoques!

It's raining now so let's hope it disappears overnight. Merthyr always gets it bad though. And yes wish I had my evoque!

RE: Okaaaay, here comes the snow!

Anyone know what the snow setting on the Adaptive Dynamics actually does? What level of snow should one experience before using it?

RE: Okaaaay, here comes the snow!

Was up in Glossop this afternoon and had to drive around a hilly housing estate in the snow. The Evoque didn't miss a beat and the Hill descent control seemed to work ever so well on some steep inclines going down hill.

As someone said earlier there where lots of other cars about slipping and sliding about, some obvioulsy a little out of control (especially on downhill sections) so if you do have to go out in the slippy stuff i am sure the Evoque will perform admirably but watch out for those driving about like a greasy weasel

Just to stir it up a bit, is there a fresh snow setting and a frozen snow setting, haha.
