What's the Best Winter Vehicle? Used AWD SUVs in Wellsville, NY

For most drivers in Wellsville and Allegany County, a used all-wheel-drive SUV is one of the best winter vehicles you can buy. AWD improves traction on snow and ice, SUVs have more ground clearance than sedans, and buying used keeps the price well below new. Bokman of Wellsville GMC carries a selection of pre-owned AWD and 4WD SUVs for winter driving.

How AWD Helps in Snow and Ice

All-wheel drive senses when a wheel is slipping and sends power to the wheels with better grip. That helps when you're accelerating from a stop, climbing hills or driving on slushy roads. Most AWD systems work automatically, so there's nothing to switch on when conditions change.

AWD vs. 4WD for Winter Driving

AWD is a good fit for most commuters and families who drive on plowed or partly plowed roads. Four-wheel drive, found on larger SUVs and trucks, is built for deeper snow, towing and rougher terrain. If you regularly drive unplowed rural roads or long driveways, a 4WD SUV may be the better choice.

Don't Skip Winter Tires

AWD helps you get moving, but it doesn't shorten your braking distance or improve cornering on ice. Tires do. For the best winter performance, pair your AWD SUV with a set of dedicated winter tires.
