6 Reliable Vehicles That Will Help You Make it Through Any Trip

Apr 26, 2013 | Rita

Are you planning a trip soon? If you are going to be driving, it’s important that you have a reliable vehicle. There are tons of cars out there, so how do you know what is going to safely get you where you need to go?

Kia Soul is Safe and Dependable

If you do a search through Kia Concord, NH you will be able to find one of the most dependable compact multi-purpose vehicles; the Kia Soul. With seating for five, this vehicle is going to get you where you need to go, and do it safely. In addition, it has a variety of great feature options, so you get the feature set you need.

Mazda 5 is Big Enough for 6

If you need a vehicle that is larger than your standard car, but you don’t quite want to upgrade to a minivan, you may start looking at the Mazda 5. This car seats 6 comfortably, it has great fuel economy for a larger vehicle, and the safety ratings are great. In addition, it is a very dependable car, which is important when you have a family on vacation.

Toyota Yaris Goes the Distance

Are you looking for a car that is small and fuel-efficient? The Yaris gets 38 miles per gallon on the highway. In addition to that, there are a variety of safety features that come standard on the car that will help your family get to their vacation destination, such as vehicle stability control and traction control.

Toyota Sequoia Offers Room and Reliability

Many families like to take trips that require a lot of extra packing. If you and your family are planning to go camping, for example, a large SUV could be helpful for carrying all the extra luggage. Though the Sequoia is not going to get amazing gas mileage, it is one of the safest vehicles on the road. When carrying your family, this is an important consideration.

Hyundai Genesis Beats out the Competition

In a surprising move, the Hyundai Genesis beat out other luxury sedans in safety testing in 2013. For the family who is looking to get to their vacation destination in style, consider the Hyundai Genesis as a safe, reliable, and luxurious option. In addition to the high safety ratings, it also got extremely good ratings for comfort. So, not only will you get to where you are going safely, you will also get there comfortably.

Subaru Legacy is Known for Dependability

If you are looking for a vehicle that outlasts the competition, you want a Subaru. These vehicles are well-known for having long lives. They are extremely dependable, and can keep going long after other cars have died. In addition, they get good gas mileage. However, this is not the most beautiful car on the list.

Getting the right car is important. You need the right combination of safety, reliability, gas mileage, and more. When looking for the right car for your family, it is important to know what is most important to you.

    All very good choices. I also notice a theme that these are all from foreign car companies. American car companies have some catching up to do, in terms of reliability.

    I love the way the Kia Soul looks and all it offers. If I could have a new car that would be one of my choices.

    These are all some nice cars. The Kia soul always reminds me of the hamsters from the commercial.

    I really like the Subaru Legacy because it looks so stylish and really is a good reliable car. This is the car I would pick out of all of them. The Kia Soul is also a reliable car that does not cost a lot. Of course, Toyota is always a reliable brand with their 2 year of free maintenance. Would consider buying this car for that~
