This time I think its caused by ice being packed around the transmission and subframe. All the wheels are pretty packed with snow and ice as well which is pretty typical for these cars though. At least the ones that see a lot of gravel roads.
    I'm gonna thaw the thing out over night and see if that fixes it.

    My 2020 does the same thing, vibration throughout whole car under full throttle....sometimes it has a whine to it...could be tires or something else, but also the car is extremely light and has the 3 cylinder engine that can drone.
