corvette is stable on the highway vs a yaris which wobbles. On an icy road stability is a must. My friend gave me a new set of amazing new winter tires from his merc that he sold,(free winters for a sports car). After a small amount of research lots of people happily drive corvettes in winter\snow. I will put the corrola 2.4 on my list.
I don't see Corvettes in the winter in western Montana. I live on a hill you can forget about getting a vette up even with the best snow tires many days in the winter. Maybe running down a maintained interstate with no mountains you might be OK. My recommendation was a Camry not a Corolla. The bigger car is safer, more comfortable, more common, and probably more aerodynamic which steady state down the highway will actually get better FE than the smaller cars. A Camry with snow tires will be fine almost everywhere but over a foot of fresh snow.
