NISSAN CARS FOR WINTER
Rise Above
Canadian Winter
Driving in winter can be a real challenge. Beyond the freezing temperatures and poor visibility, one big snowfall can make it feel like you’re going off-road. Find out how Nissan vehicles can help give you the edge in the colder months.
CROSSOVERS & SUVS FOR WINTER DRIVING
Cold-Weather Capability
If you’re visiting a cabin or hitting the slopes, crossovers and SUVs have the capability to help tackle steep, slippery grades and heavy snow, thanks to all-wheel drive and a high ground clearance. Nissan offers options with these features and more.

Helpful Winter Driving Features
When it comes to finding winter vehicles, it’s important to have a clear idea of the features you may need on a daily basis — and on your holidays. Here are some helpful cold weather specs to consider.
SAFETY & PERFORMANCE
Welcome the Snowy Terrain
All-Wheel Drive
Maintaining traction is key for winter safety, and all-wheel drive is designed to help you do just that. Many Nissan models come with Intelligent All-Wheel Drive or Intelligent 4X4. [[2036]]
Winter Tires
Reliable winter tires are a must. Preferably, try to install them before the temperature drops below 7 °C. If you’re a Nissan driver, you can always connect with your local dealer to chat about winter tires and other seasonal accessories. [[2100]]
Traction Control
Preventing excessive wheel spin is also important. Nissan vehicles have standard Vehicle Dynamic Control with a Traction Control System that’s designed to monitor slippage and adjust how fast select wheels are spinning to help with grip. [[2090]]
Different Terrain Modes
Help your 4X4 system function at its best by fine-tuning it to suit the terrain. Most Nissan SUVs have a Terrain Mode Selector, which offers up to seven modes including one for deep snow. See how it works on the Pathfinder.
Heated Outside Mirrors
When ice and snow impede your visibility in the winter, heated side mirrors slowly change from a 'want' to a 'need' for many Canadian drivers. Most Nissan models offer them as a standard feature.
COMFORT & CONVENIENCE
Stay Cozy Between Adventures
Remote Engine Start
When the temperature drops, you’ll appreciate being able to warm up your vehicle in advance. Nissan’s available Remote Engine Start lets you start and heat your car before you get in. [[2078]]
Heated Steering Wheel
Many Nissan vehicles offer standard heated front seats and a heated steering wheel, to help you warm up between errands and activities. A nice-to-have for any Canadian driver.
Climate Control
Ideally, a good winter vehicle has climate control. Nissan SUVs offer available Dual-Zone and Tri-Zone Automatic Temperature Control systems with row-by-row temperature settings.
Ski-Trip-Ready Cargo
Make sure your winter ride has enough room for skis, snowboards, bags and more. Nissan SUVs are made with 60/40 folding rear seats and roomy cargo space. [[2025]]
