Micra in the snow & ice -- how does it drive / handle?

[dani3d]

The stability control is in all trim of the Micra, from the cheapest S to the more expensive SR. It's written in their brochure.

Of course, stability will not do any miracle if you have bad winter tire and it's sliperry. So to have good control it is still required to have good snow tires. I am guessing that stability will not do much if the tires are not good.
