Welcome to 9th gen.
CVTs can be a bit troublesome, as evidenced in many threads here. To begin, ensure that the dealership changes the CVT fluid because chances are that the the PO didn't. If there are no driving issues with the CVT, continue to change the fluid every 30k miles and you're less likely to develop issues.
Driving in snow and ice depends primarily on the tires. Where you live and how much snow you get are also factors. Some swear by winter tires. For the short and inconsistent snows we get where I live, I have always had good results with good all-seasons. On solid ice nothing is gonna offer great grip so drive accordingly.
