I have the V6 AWD, with Michelin X-ice3. I find that Sport mode puts out too much torque too quickly and the wheels spin out a bit. Driving around in Econ or Normal works great though.
I have been able to get the car to slide out a bit before the system kicks in and the grip comes back strong. I'm pretty happy, with the snow performance. I have also had to make some emergency maneuvers due to other drivers sliding out and I'll say I'm glad I have a car that can move when it needs to despite the snow. I do have to give some credit to my tires.
From stopped to go: No issues at all. Always the first one out ahead of the pack.
Lane changing over snowpiles: No issues at all, car powers through the snow.
Driving through 15-30cm of fresh snowy roads: No issues at all, car powers through the snow.
90 Degree turns: Expect to slide a bit, or just slow down.
Stopping: It's winter, give your self plenty of room to slow down, SH-AWD isn't going to help you here.
