I just had an X on overnight loan (to check garage fitment and have my wife try one loaded with our family), and it just happened to be a fairly nasty but typical Montreal weather phenomenon where we got a combination of 10cm snow immediately followed by warmer temperatures and freezing rain.
I had some fun testing the X in these slippery conditions (always in safe settings), and came away very impressed with Tesla's implementation of AWD traction control. I have been driving a RWD P85 S for over three years, and while it performs very well in most conditions, it is very easy to get the rear of the car swerving in medium amounts of snow or slush (especially on hills).
The X almost felt like it was on dry pavement, obviously acceleration was slower but I only felt the most minute wobble in the less used streets I drove on (more snow & slush). Braking with the friction brakes was excellent.
I tried both regen settings, and in these conditions found no significant difference (this surprised me), but to be fair I did not encounter large ice patches, as most streets had been doused with salt by the time I ventured out.
This may obviously not be applicable to D models, but when driving my S I usually leave regen to low in winter, standard was enough to cause the car to briefly lose grip while going down a snow-packed downhill street in previous winters.
I have quite a bit of experience driving in "real" winter conditions, and this extended test drive was enough to sway me to order an X (and more importantly my wife liked it enough not to object !).
