Can you say cold ?

Couple weeks ago.. the ambient mid day tem was -24c to -26c with wind chill .. a blistering -41c
after sitting idle all day.. she started with a little delay..
took 20 mins before it stop feeling like i was driving a brick to the typical ride.. a few extra squeeks as well.. but once the cabin temp went to 21c .. all fell into place..

BTW.. for those "Fortunate" not to live is a cold cold climate.. the Evoque performs admirably in the mountains ..
But.. I dont beleive its full time all wheel drive.. at least I think they (the rear wheels) engage in certain traction conditions..

Although the RR Sport does a better job in the snow..with proper winter tires.. I feel very confident ..
my driveway proves it when we get a 20-30cm snow fall

It is full time 4 wheel drive, it just varies the amount front to rear but all wheels are always driven

95% front, 5% rear. It's as near as makes no difference front-wheel-drive in normal driving conditions.
