Damn I just got back from taking the car out, and forgot to check what tires it comes with. I'll reply back when I get a chance to check.

I understand that the tyre didn't perform well in snow, but were you also using the GGS mode of the Terrain Response? As soon as I disabled the Grass, Gravel and Snow setting (Sand setting works even better in snow according to some but I have never tried it) yes the car was slipping and sliding all over the place on OEM 20" Continentals.
Where I am we are not guaranteed heavy snow fall every winter, I also haven't had my current Evoque long enough to see if it performs any better on the Michelin tyres in any depth of snow. The Michelin tyres on it have a far less sporty tread pattern and lots more sips for getting water/ slush out.
