~~It’s worth noting that due to brilliant design decisions, the only way to put different tires on it is to replace the whole wheel.~~ edit: apparently this part was not correct, my apologies for the misinformation

That does not look like a ton of snow. I park in higher snow than that every year when I drive out to the mountains to ski. That would be about the amount of snow I park in the driveway with after it’s been plowed and sat for a couple hours with snow fall.
The thread that came from is full of people saying their Civics, Outbacks, Mini Coopers, etc has handled snow like that with no problem.
It’s like 5-6” of snow on a flat grade.
The type of snow also plays into how easy or difficult it is to drive in. The snow in the pic looks like a tricky sort to me.
But I'd still expect a car with enough clearance and AWD to manage it.
Back in my day we used to drive in double the snow on our way to school, up hill both ways. And all of that on summer tires!
