I know you asked to exclude smaller size, but it is inescapable.
With a teen and a pre-teen, the rear seat of the A4 wouldn't work for me, but I also found the front cramped, and I'm only 5'10", 165 lb.
The 9-5's ESP and TSC and 16" Nokian's allowed me to not miss a beat last winter, and it was close to a record-setting total snowfall winter. The
quattro wouldn't have done anything but cost me gas mileage all year long. The Aero gets great gas mileage. I average close to 24 mpg with combination driving (fast and faster). Actually, that's with discretionary use of go-fast pedal. Loaded with the family on summer vacations, can exceed 30 mpg. Very impressive.
