Depends. It is a rear wheel drive car, with wide tires, not the best combination for the snow. It more depends on the driver.

Yes. The IS300 is a RWD car. You will have difficulty driving int he snow.

As with any RWD car, it is much harder to drive in slippery conditions then say a FWD/AWD car. l would highly reccomend you not drive any RWD car in the snow, but if you must. please put on a good set of winter tires such as the Blizzaks and feather the gas pedal, especially on turns. Setting the Traction Control ON would help aswell.

Yes, the Lexus is tough to drive in the snow.

Like the BMW, a Lexus is rear-wheel drive with stability control, and that is the perfect combination which causes great driving in dry weather and poor driving in slippery weather.

Yes. It is a rear wheel drive car. Rear wheel drive cars are the hardest cars to drive in the snow and rain.
You should never go out in the snow with a rear wheel drive car. It is almost impossible to drive in 2 inch snow because the tires would just keep spinning.

My IS 300 is hopeless with even a dusting of snow. l actually went online to see if the thing CAN be driven in the snow myself. Last winter l had to drive my daughter is car. My question is will even the Blizzak snow tires make this car drivable in the snow or should l get a new car? l LOVE this car otherwise, by the way.
