>I just wish it had AWD for the winters where I live.
Why? People always say this. AWD doesn't help you stop faster. It won't help you get around the corner. You aren't on a racetrack.
Buy better tires. A real set of winter specialized tires will do better than any powertrain option. If you are absolutely insistent that no really you are totally special, get studded tires.
The best snow performance I've ever had out of a vehicle came not from the AWD trucks people around me owned, but from $34 walmart winter tires on a Dodge Neon. Because being light is a benefit.
Or, and this is the big one, stop being so bad at driving! My mom would spend $350 a tire on the best best best snow tire money could buy and fill it full of studs and still feel like she was out of control in the snow, because if you put your foot down on the pedal, any vehicle with more than 20HP will spin the tires.
Learn how to steer in the snow and slightly out of control. It's pretty intuitive IMO and fun.
Just be gentler. Press the pedal less to start. Or don't, modern ESC has no problem modulating the throttle for you.

Don't patronize me. I've lived in Iowa for 35+ years, I know how to drive in the snow.
