BMW's all-wheel drive system, known as xDrive, enhances safety and makes it easier to navigate in winter weather conditions. Most models are available with xDrive. With xDrive, you can expect enhanced safety, improved traction, better handling, superior traction, and superior power distribution.
Prepare Your BMW for the Winter
BMW models with xDrive are well-suited for helping you navigate through snow and ice, but there are a few steps that you can take further to improve your vehicle's performance in the winter months. For example, your tires significantly impact traction and handling. Install winter tires and ensure that the tread and air pressure are within safe ranges.
You should also inspect major components, such as the battery. Ensure that the cables are securely connected to the battery and that the battery has sufficient voltage. Additionally, replace the wiper fluid with a winter-mix solution and check the levels of coolant, brake fluid, and motor oil.
The exterior of your BMW also requires your attention as you prepare for driving in winter weather. Inspect the wiper blades for wear and replace them as necessary. Check the headlights, taillights, fog lights, and turning signals. In addition, coat the locks and doors with a suitable sealant to prevent them from freezing.
An ounce of prevention elevates your safety this winter. Review your emergency kit. Ensure that you have first-aid supplies, extra snow chains, road flares, a thick blanket, an ice scraper and shovel, snacks, and water. It's also helpful to refresh your understanding of safe winter driving habits.
