Ranked #14 of 20

Finished 14th out of 20 competitors, the Giti Gitiwinter W2 received a final rating of 'Satisfactory'. It demonstrated excellent qualities on snowy roads, boasting impressive capabilities in snow braking, snow cornering, and snow handling.

Despite these drawbacks, its strengths in snow performance made it stand out in certain disciplines.
