Its a heavy SUV. Normally its fine, however, once the front wheels spinning tires in snow, you are done and you need a truck tow it out. AWD is awesome tho.

The issue is AWD and FWD... For Edmonton weather, you need AWD.

You don't understand the difference between car and heavy SUV and i'm sure you never owned a FWD Edge. : }8 r P6 n( o- I) B7 ~. e . N X0 y/ p7 n( @For those Accords, Fusions, I have no problem driving them for winter whatsoever even without winter tires.) j; V, I6 d1 L/ x3 w, B

Civic is kinda too light for winter. One of my colleague end up crashed his civic in heavy snow 2 years ago. You need to be careful and drive slow and put some weight in trunk.
