Default Cx5 GT: AWD or Front Wheel Drive?
I’m shopping for a CX5 and wondering about the difference in performance between the AWD and Front wheel drive models? Anyone with a front wheel drive car live in snowy winters and have testimonials?

Front wheel drive does very well in the snow. My mom has a FWD Sante Fe and hasn't had any problems getting around especially with out last snow. Our fusion is FWD and it does fine.

I'm on my second CX5, first one was FWD- ok in snow and can get around ok. My current CX5 is AWD- drive is far superior than FWD. Highly recommend it
