I have driven Mercedes diesels in and around Washington, DC and Northern VA for 20 Plus years and I have never had a problem in snow. Though 2- 50 pound bags of sand (one on each side) from home depot in the trunk make it better, the cars do great without them.
On ice? Now that's another issue. Sand still helps as you can spread it on the ice.
