Back in the '60s, rear engine VWs with narrow tires were the car of choice in snow.
I commuted across the DC city to high school through the snow for maybe 2 years in a '30 Ford Model A 2-door that not only had no defroster but also had mechanical brakes and very narrow tires. The tires had no treads running across them. Yet we always made it.
Narrow tires are an advantage. As is weight over the driven wheels.
