Here in the midwest we are getting hammered last several days with almost 20" of snow and about an inch of ice in there. I went out Saturday and was promptly immobilized at an intersection where there was some drifting snow. Stupid me I guess, but the auto parking brake was on, and the park assist was going nuts picking up snow drifts all over. Car also kept telling me to clean the sensors because they were blocked. Yes, it's snowing and nasty, I get the sensors are blocked, no need to tell me. Anyway, flipped through the menus and turned traction control off, park assist off, auto brake off, and away we went. Seems silly to have to do all these things. Since then, car seems a bit better about alerting adjacent snow. But still, seems silly for the vehicle to have all these alerts and not have some option that says "HEY, YES, IT'S SNOWING, STOP BUGGING ME".
Other than that, it's been getting around very well, provided the traction control and park assist stay off. Perhaps a bit over engineered and underthought for a Swedish vehicle that should anticipate arctic conditions?
