Does snow mode in Xpower use AWD?

[siteguru]

Your image earlier in this thread doesn't suggest power flow to all 4 wheels, but maybe you need someone else to take the photo whilst you are driving?

Or, try speeding up a bit?
I was doing less than 10 mph.
But, the last time I had any Snow to drive in I don't remember going too quickly

 

[shinyrobot]

You sure m8?
In Snow??
Gotta check that again now.....
Not now, tomorrow!
I could swear it didnt show both motors in Snow.
Perhaps I'm losing it.
Happy to be wrong though

Just to add, when I took the picture (up above somewhere)
I was doing less than 10mph in Snow Mode.

Yup, checked a few times.
Maybe we're on different software?
I think I'm on R40 (if I'm reading it right)

It may only use 4wd when it needs to in snow mode.

No, I am sure your right pal.
But I will definitely check tomoz, just for my own sanity and to declare 1.0 to you

I know this question might be very controversial, but doesn't it say in the manual……..

Shut up, voice of reason!!

Well someone has to be and I drew the short straw…..

Plus my wife asked why was I shouting “read the ****** manual”……

So, seeing as your reading the *** manual,
Uhmm, does it mention anything at all regarding Snow Mode???

No, my bad, re-read!
Your not reading it.
Just shouting at us to???

Now where's them "***" glasses again

Yeah, @CooperS , @Bricktop1967 has more important things to do...
... like a 1000mile mud flap test

Sorry totally out of order. For recompense, my mudflaps should be arriving this week, so will fit to the EV6 and let you know the results.

Ere, I've had a quick look, and I'm sure you'll agree, MG goes to some length to explain the Snow Mode System including in depth technical information for the nerds amongst us.
(Including, or might only be me )

 

[CooperS]

Well that was a waste of time…..told you not to bother…

That appears to be just for the 2wd car, is there a supplement for the XPOWER.

That's what came with the App.
I have assumed because it was linked to my specific car, it would know its an XPower?
Probably not eh?

Perhaps the in-car manual will be more specific?

We'll see tomorrow......
Cant be arsed now.

Not sure what happened when I did it first time round.
No honestly.
Convinced I was in Snow Mode

There is nothing about Driving Modes in the in-car manual.

 

[tsedge]

Does the XPower have Lairy mode?

 

[olliewebb]

Does the XPower have Lairy mode?

Sport mode, but nothing about the car is lairy other than the launch.

It’s the most polite ‘performance car’ I’ve ever driven.

 

[Bricktop X PWR]

Oh yes.

Wait for the road to be wet.
Pop off ESC.
Leave in Normal Mode.
Wait for just the right bend.
Administer a healthy dose of throttle.
The back will step out.
Prepare to catch.
Get it right? Much hilarity.
Get it wrong..................... Call the AA.

Then turn esc back on and go home to change your underwear.

Then stop mucking about and leave it in sport to ensure smooth, safe, but still very fast progress.
P.S. Car can still let go even with ESC on, so beware!

Made mine squeel and what felt like a hop to the left. I wasn't playing Damien's The Time Warp so I know is was legit. I was in custom though with comfort steering and pedal, but sport power and adaptive regen. Drove very well.
