Is a 2018 Dodge Challenger R/T V8 Hemi suitable for winter?

Asked by Woodmahn Sep 28, 2018 at 11:43 AM about the 2018 Dodge Challenger R/T RWD

Question type: General

I am looking to lease a 2018 Dodge
Challenger RT V8 Hemi rear wheel drive. I
know this car has traction control and heavier
weight. I live in Michigan and experience
snow regularly. Would this car be driveable
without winter tires? If not I am considering a
2018 Charger GT AWD if that is a better art to
drive.

The challenger is my preferred option but not
at the cost of drive-ability. Thank you!

A high HP rear wheel drive car with summer tires in the winter? What do you think?

I would say yes. I have an AWD GT now with blizzaks and it is a tank in the snow. Best Vehicle I have ever driven in the snow. I am thinking of eventually getting a 5.7 RWD Chally next and I am confident with snows it would do pretty good in the winter. I live in VT where the winters and roads are pretty harsh
