  | I'm shocked !! :) A swedish carmag did a wintertest and tested different 4wd systems. BMW 525 xi, Audi A6 Quattro, Hyndai Santa Fe V6, Land Rover Discovery TD V6, MB ML 350, Subaru Legacy 2.0 (!!!), VW Tourareg 3,0 V6 och Volvo XC70 2,5T I havent read the test but the winner was BMW 525 xi and they liked the new generation xDrive. I cant remember when a BMW won a swedish wintercomparison so Im a little bit shocked here  Anyway, congratz BMW for finally making it  When I get some more info I will add it here... |

I havent read the test yet but I guess they tested more than just 4wd systems. Must have included lights, xeon, heat in the coupe and so on. Its a wintertest. | |

Swedish automotorsport tested the most fun wintercars, including EVOIX, Impreza, ML 350 , A3 3.2q, 330xid and more. All same tires and 330 diesel got the fastest laptime around their wintertrack. Thats also a surprise to me, I would have bet on the EVOIX. However the said that EVOIX was the most fun wintercar. the issue is out in the stores. | |

| Re: I'm shocked !! :) Sounds interesting, I thought that quattro was the best 4wd system! I'm very surprised that a diesel beat an EVO round a track! Seems Xdrive is very good! |
