It's a question asked by many automobile owners living in a number of regions around the world with harsh winters and lots of snow; would you be better off with a front-wheel drive (FWD) model fitted with winter tires that you can swap once the weather warms up, or an all-wheel drive (AWD) vehicle with regular rubber?
The difference in pricing between winter tires and the option of all-wheel drive on a FWD car varies among automakers and even individual models, though, you should keep in mind that a second set of tires can potentially extend the life of your standard wheels.
Britain's Autocar magazine sought to find an answer to the aforementioned question by comparing two otherwise identical, 110hp diesel-powered Skoda Yeti crossovers. We suspect that most of you will know the outcome, but the tests do reveal some interesting facts.
