Kia Sorento Plug-In Hybrid EV Range On Studless Snow Tires

Today I mounted studless snow tires on my 2022 Kia Sorento plug-in hybrid (PHEV). I live in the Seattle area, which does get snow and more so black ice and slick roads in winter.

Now I have the first of multiple data points to share about the impact on range these tires can have.

Also important: the total cost of ownership (including purchase, fueling and maintenance of the vehicle), utility or functionality, and feature set.
