Pre-purchase, bad weather ability - Toyota Yaris Forums

XtraRevsSurely · 11-20-2011, 08:08 AM

I would like my next car to be a Yaris. I test drove one this past Thrusday to make sure the center gauge cluster didn't drive me nuts-it didn't.
My plan is to get a 2010 certified used. I want the Star Safety System with a manual transmission.

My question is, how does the Yaris do in snow? I live in NE Wisconsin and have used snow tire on my Corolla the past 5 years between late Nov-April.
I would buy snow tires for the Yaris too, but have also thought about getting a Suzuki SX4 AWD.

I figure Yaris would be no worse than the Corolla especially given the snow tires. Plus it has traction control, but I don't know if that would make much difference.
