Default Audi A4 Easily Driving Thru 1 Foot of Snow

Here is a video of me driving my stock 2009 Audi A4 through a foot of fresh snow. I was honestly impressed about how easy this was to do. I did a little snow drifting in the video.

Let me know what you think...

Good thing there were no concrete parking barriers in that lot.

That SUV could barely keep the same path. Or maybe it wasn't trying to. But if it was, it went way wide and almost got acquainted with the fence

Maybe he measured along the ground?

Trust me it was actually 10-12 inches. I promise you it wasnt 4-6". By the end of that day it snowed about 20".

I know it doesnt look like it at the beginning of the video but thats because it was partially compacted. As the video starts the tracks are white because the tires dont actually hit the black top. Once the car starts drifting and the wheels start spinning fast, they dig down deeper and you will notice that you can see the ground. By looking at that you can see how deep the snow was. Later on in that day we started to get stuck because the tracks were so deep.
