Why not try to find something like a later model diesel Passat or something? It’ll have space for the family, good mpg from the Diesel engine, and it’s FWD which is statistically safer (on snow) than a RWD anything...

Granted, a Prius or Volt would give better mileage overall, but then you’ve got to worry about batteries and such
