AAA Names Chrysler Dodge and Hyundai Brands as Top Vehicle Picks for Road Trips

June 17, 2011 - PRLog -- AAA Names Chrysler Dodge and Hyundai Brands as Top Vehicle Picks for Road Trips
Well there you have it. AAA has just announced its top Picks for Road Trips and AAA, an organization that provides services to its members through travel, automotive, insurance, financial and discounts, has picked  five of our vehicles as some of the best automobiles to take a road trip in, in select categories.  

As drivers are spending more and more time on road trips, AAA has decided to put each vehicle to the test for those who opt for taking to the open road versus traveling by plane, train or other mode of transportation for vacations.

"Since the invention of the automobile, Americans have enjoyed taking road trips. From wood-paneled station wagons to oversized conversion vans, most Americans have grown up taking road trips with their family and friends," said John Nielsen, AAA National Director of Auto Repair, Buying Services and Consumer Information.
   
From their expertise, they released its top vehicle picks for road trips in six categories to offer options for a variety of consumers at every price point with our Chrysler 300 and Dodge Charger as the top pick in the Large Car category, Hyundai Sonata in the Medium Car category, the Chrysler Town & Country in the Minivan category and the Dodge Durango in the SUV category.  Each vehicle was picked for road trips taking into consideration a wide variety of factors such as interior comfort, cargo size, passenger room and comfort, fuel economy, safety, vehicle performance and handling as well as other factors.

What AAA had to say about our 2011 Dodge Charger/Chrysler 300:

Much improved for 2011, the Chrysler 300 and Dodge Charger (built on the same platform) offer a surprising amount of room, a comfortable and well-controlled ride and good handling. Interior treatments are noticeably upgraded, as well. The new 3.6-liter V-6 engine provides adequate power and reasonable fuel economy. However, AAA Auto Buying experts report rear visibility is still an issue though forward visibility for overhead traffic lights has been improved from previous model years.

What AAA had to say about our 2011 Hyundai Sonata:

“AAA Auto Buying experts found the Hyundai Sonata to be an excellent performer from any perspective. The ride is comfortable and controlled, the handling is highly predictable and the four-cylinder engine delivers both good performance and good fuel economy. For those planning a road trip with taller passengers in the back seat, the swooping roof cuts into the rear seat head room as well as rear visibility.”

What AAA had to say about our 2011 Chrysler Town & Country:

Much improved with a mid-cycle freshening, the Chrysler Town & Country comes with a standard array of useful safety features including a backup camera and cross traffic and blind spot alerts. The Stow 'n' Go seats are unparalleled for convenience and the ride and handling are quite good in the new model. The Town & Country can be a great pick for those traveling with children, however the second row seats still are not very adult friendly.

What AAA had to say about our 2011 Dodge Durango:

The new platform for the Dodge Durango, which it shares with the Jeep Grand Cherokee, is very good. Its ride and handling are well above average, and the new 3.6-liter V-6 is more than capable of delivering power when needed. Rear seat room is up to the challenge of handling six-foot passengers. The main drawback to the Durango is its below-class-average fuel economy.
