Subaru Forester or Outback. And if you want to be ready for really severe weather, make sure you put good snow tires on it. And the higher end models with the "X-mode" AWD control. Can't do much better for really bad conditions than a Forester with snow tires and X-mode. The newer ones with the CVT have really improved the fuel economy.

The Subaru Outback and Forester are the only good options. However, I'd recommend the Outback more because it has a cushier ride than the Forester. You can get a 2017 Outback 2.5i Premium in your budget.

Agree with above suggestions from Subaru.

I would also add CX-5 AWD. It is not bad for an AWD and has other characteristics: safe, fuel efficient and reliable.
