Must-Have Winter Features

Winter driving can be dangerous. With snow storms and ill-suited road conditions, it's best to be prepared for an emergency. Keep reading for the key features your vehicle needs during the winter.

ABS brakes, electronic stability control, and traction control: The good news is, if you’re buying a 2013 or later new car, these features are already built into your car by federal mandate. They’re incredibly helpful on slick surfaces and can help drivers stay safe in sloppy weather. If you’re looking for a used car, put cars with these features near the top of your wish list.

Heated front seats: When the Chevrolet Volt debuted in 2011, engineers opted for heated seats because they warm the driver and front passengers faster than heating the air. Even if you have a good heater, heated seats will make those cold moments go away faster.

Emergency gear: Keep a shovel, blanket, flare, bottled water, jumper cables, flashlight, a basic tool kit, and additional washer fluid with you in the trunk. You never know when you’ll need them, but you definitely don’t want to need them and not have them.

Maintain a Safe Following Distance

Nobody likes being tailgated, and if the driver in front of you has to come to a quick stop, following too closely could have dangerous consequences. That’s why it’s important to maintain a safe following distance from the car ahead of you. You may need to increase the distance between your car and the vehicle ahead of you if it is a motorcycle, for example, as they can come to a stop more quickly than heavier vehicles. And, you may also need to do the same if it’s raining or snowing, as it can take your car longer to stop on slick roads.
