Drove my Roadster in about 1.5" of mushy soft snow (about the worst kind of traction besides ice) yesterday with my snow tires for the first time. While it didn't grab and go like my AWD with snow tires (obviously), it had no trouble going uphill in it. What was jaw-droppingly amazing about the experience was the traction control. Flooring it or giving it partial throttle had no effect -- it was giving exactly as much torque as it could without slipping. It was an undetectable experience (aside from not going as fast as I would on dry road). In an ICE car with TC, you'd feel it slip, pull back, give more, slip, pull back, repeat. Absolutely amazing how well the Roadster controlled the power output.
