Chevy Traverse and Impala Recognized in 12 Best Family Cars

In this year’s search to find the best family vehicle conducted by Kelley Blue Book, real families were among the testers. Recognized by these families as top picks were the 2014 Chevy Traverse and Impala at Jim Butler Chevrolet in St. Louis.

Chevrolet director of marketing, Russ Clark stated, “We designed the Chevrolet Impala and Traverse precisely to offer a wide suite of useful family-friendly features.”

The 2014 Chevy Traverse and Chevy Impala both were chosen for their excellence in safety, comfort, driving performance, room for child seats, cargo space, rear-seat entertainment and other family-friendly features.

Kelley Blue Book started with 21 vehicles that were top-ranked in different family-friendly categories that were then dwindled down to the best 12 with the help of several families.  The results and feedback were recorded by Kelley Blue Book editors.

Some of these results were surprising to Kelley Blue Book, especially the number of sedans that made the list. “Once upon a time before minivans and SUVs, sedans were the primary family car of choice, and this year’s list proves the modern sedan still makes a fine family car,” according to Jack R. Nerad, executive editorial director and executive market analyst for Kelley Blue Book’s KBB.com.
