Winter is upon us. In fact, the first snowflakes have already fallen in several municipalities in Estrie. If you're currently in the process of shopping for a used car, you're undoubtedly wondering which product to choose to face the tough season ahead.

Here are five used cars to consider according to Occasion Beaucage to tackle winter so it doesn't get the best of you.

1 — Any Subaru Product

We could include only vehicles from the Subaru brand in this list of used cars, as they represent such compelling solutions for facing the winter season. In some regions of Quebec, including Estrie, the penetration rate of the company's models is higher than in other places.

The reason is simple. The all-wheel-drive system equipped in all Subaru models is one of the best, if not the best in the industry. Behind the wheel of a Subaru product in the midst of a snowstorm, you don't feel anxiety, but rather enjoyment.

Whether it's an Impreza for those on tighter budgets or an Outback for those with more means, a model is sure to meet your needs at Occasion Beaucage.

2 — Any Mitsubishi SUV

What holds true for Subaru also applies to Mitsubishi. Whether it's an RVR or an Outlander with a few years under its belt, you'll benefit from a highly competent product on slippery surfaces. Moreover, vehicles from the company boast reliability records above average. If you want peace of mind this winter, choosing a used Mitsubishi product makes perfect sense.

3 — Toyota RAV4

For years, the Toyota RAV4 has been the most popular vehicle in the compact SUV segment. Consequently, it abounds in the used car market, making it a breeze to find one. With this product, you get a reliable player that is highly capable of handling deteriorating conditions. And since there are many on the market, it's easy to find one in excellent condition, provided you're patient... or you can visit us at Occasion Beaucage.

4 — Hyundai Santa Fe XL

If you need space, a vehicle like the Hyundai Santa Fe XL could be an excellent companion for the upcoming cold season in Estrie. Offering seating for seven people, it has been available with the company's HTRAC all-wheel-drive system since 2013, a system that has proven itself but remains relatively unknown to the general public. Plus, you'll find with it one of the best value propositions in the industry.

5 — Honda HR-V

If, on the other hand, you can live with a vehicle offering a little less space, the Honda HR-V could be an excellent solution for you. This compact SUV based on the Fit hatchback offers a remarkably versatile and spacious interior for its class. With all-wheel drive, you hit the road with confidence behind the wheel. Moreover, reliability is assured with this vehicle, so there's nothing to fear for the long term.
