Yes......but if you live in the Northern states like I did in Colorado like I did for fourteen years you have to use some discretion ......like I don't think I would tackle Vail Pass with 6' of snow on the ground....smile....I have a caddilac cts with traction control will it go in the snow?
Get a 1996 ford Taurus for winter car. CTS rear drive will be a hand full on ice and snow. It will still go and stabilitrack will help. I just cannot wait untill ice here in Texas My 421 rear wheel modified 2006 Pontiac GTO will be in the Garage. Or spining out on a department store parking lot.
You need a 4 wheel drive in the snow. Traction control just helps the car for skidding tires .. so you won't go off the road.
Traction control was really made to deal with icy or wet roads. It may help some with snow. The power is shifted to to wheel (s)


that are gripping and taken from the wheels that are not. This may be of some use but is not like four-wheel drive.
Yes it works well in the snow.





Be careful that you don't drive too fast for road conditions. You can get a false sense of security with these systems. If you hit ice, or black ice, I don't care if you have traction control, stability control, anti-lock brakes, or four wheel drive, on ice you can lose control.





But using it frequently in the show will wear out your brakes quickly.





Traction control works by applying the brake to a wheel that is spinning faster than the other wheels. If you abuse your traction can wear out your brake pads in only a few thousand miles.





If the snow is so deep that you are dragging bottom too much, traction control won't help. Your car will ride up on the snow and lose traction. You will then be stuck
All it does it take power away from whatever wheel is spinning and transfer it to a wheel that has traction. (Kind of like a limited slip rear end, but it applies to all 4 wheels). If you are on snow, and all 4 tires will spin, you are generally out of luck. With ice, forget it. You won't do any better (or any worse for that matter) than any other car on the road in those conditions.
