Funny that there wasn't a Subaru in the comparison... probably would have made the Audi look bad.
I have taken mine up a longer, and from looks of it, steeper hill. It was covered in over a foot of fresh snow and even with the fairly worn out all seasons, the SVX had no trouble at all. The hardest part was just trying to see through all the snow flying over the hood as the SVX acted like a snow plow.
