When automakers boast that one of their vehicles is the ultimate family vehicle, you might have only their word and your personal experience to go on. After all, what constitutes the best family car? Here at A. M. Maus and Son, we think it’s a combination of safety, reliability, entertainment value, storage, and overall feel.
Luckily, we’re not alone in our way of thinking. At the Family Car Challenge, an event hosted by the Greater Atlanta Automotive Media Association (GAAMA), over 40 journalists got together to test drive several family-friendly vehicles and declared that the winner of the “Best Family Car” is the all-new 2017 Chrysler Pacifica. We’ve talked a lot about why the new Chrysler Pacifica is such an enticing option for families and it would seem that we’re not alone.
“GAAMA works hard at this event to evaluate a variety of vehicles for family friendliness and functionality,” said Christopher Lawrence, GAAMA President, and CEO of AutoAcademics, according to PR Newswire. "Our members were thoroughly impressed by the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica. It's a home run for today's busy families, offering versatility, functionality, technology, and an attractive design all in one vehicle."
The 2017 Chrysler Pacifica excels because it offers a whole new suite of integrated technologies and features that focus on every member of the family, and every seat. In other family vehicles, we often see features that focus mostly on one aspect and ignore others. Here, each seat and corner have a function. From the new infotainment screen in the front to the optional dual 10-inch touchscreens, built-in vacuum, automated Stow n’ Go seating, driver assist braking and forward collision warning, etc., you’d be hard pressed to find something not to love about the all-new minivan.
So head on down to 21 Maus Drive in Kimball, MN today to check out the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica as well as plenty other new 2016 models during our Memorial Day Saving Event.
