I wonder if the AWD was really useful at that angle. RWD
should have been enough.

At this angle, in terrain (no snow or ice) you will need grip.
Without AWD or 4WD you will be left with a spinning (rear) wheel.

Re: audi and kaipola ski jump advertisiement - climbing an icy hill
Thanks for the correction. I checked the ad again, and it was 80%
grade.
37.5 degrees is more likely! It is still very steep, though
