What does "Snow" mode achieve for winter traction in a Jeep?

"Snow" mode in a Jeep is designed to enhance traction in winter conditions by modifying how the vehicle's power is delivered to the wheels. Specifically, it starts the vehicle in second gear when accelerating. This approach helps prevent excessive wheel spin that can occur when starting in first gear on slippery surfaces like snow or ice. By beginning in second gear, the power is delivered more smoothly, giving the driver better control and reducing the chance of losing traction during initial acceleration.

Using second gear allows for a more gradual increase in speed, which is particularly beneficial on slick roads. This feature is especially important for maintaining stability and control while navigating through challenging winter conditions. The other options either do not align with the purpose of the "Snow" mode or involve settings that would not enhance winter traction.
