I think all the bad rep RWD cars have in the snow is because even with barely any snow the RWD car slips, and can't grip compared to the FWD who without snowtires can still operate. This is the problem, if we say both drive trains have winter tires we wouldnt have this debate, its the fact that you CAN drive a fwd in a little snow without snow tires, compared to the RWD car even the slightest snow can cause it to lose grip due to the lightweight backend. This isnt smart to drive without snow tires, but there are many cities with tons of people seeing this as an advantage than getting snow tires. Although i believe everyone should have them, not everyone need them in milder snow climate cities if you have a FWD car.
