Watched that very video just the other day. Can't say I gained much from watching it.

This is my first AWD car. And driving in the snow on Boxing Day was a hoot. At the end of a three hour journey of cautious driving, and where the roads were clear I floored the throttle to see how much traction there was. From zero to about 40-50mph, no issues, no wheelspin. Then just a light on the dash showing the stability/traction control system was doing something. With summer tyres.

Quite incredible.
