My old Volvo’s (non 4x) went great on snow and hills but I kept two sets of rims so switched to snow tires in the winter. My “newer” Volvo is an XC and I’ve had great luck (better luck than some of the little AWD mini-SUVs) climbing up a snowy, icy driveway with all weather tires and been very happy. But yes, you can drive in anything…and we did back in the day with Pintos Vegas, VWs and heavens knew what…you LEARN how to drive in it. My kid was living in the mountains with an Escort LOL and would drive it if he could find it under the fresh snow drifts. The car isn’t going to help; if you don’t know what you are doing on snow and ice.
