Company lease Tiguan 4x4 - should I be looking at other models?

I currently have a company lease VW Tiguan (which I'm happy with) and was going to exchange for another in March next year. I do 15K miles per year (22 mile each way commute) and am thinking about the manual diesel Escape variant, quoted fully maintained at £335 plus VAT per month.
I live at 1000ft on the moors in Yorkshire - so getting to work through snow (I have spare snow tyres) is vital.
Are there any other vehicles I should be considering?
Thank you
Stephen Ward
