Getting the best car for your family’s needs can be tricky. You have to find a vehicle that can fit everyone, while also keeping them safe, comfortable, and entertained throughout long road trips. Luckily, Chevrolet has a nice variety of family-oriented vehicles to suit your every need. Here are some of them.

1. Chevrolet Equinox

SUVs are the most popular car type nowadays, one of the main reasons for that being their great versatility. The Chevy Equinox is a perfect example, being a small crossover SUV that can comfortably seat up to five passengers and offer them a smooth and comfortable ride. It’s as quick and agile as a sedan, but the interior comfort and cargo space make it much more suitable as a family vehicle. Its standard engine is a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder with 170 horsepower and 203 pound-feet of torque, paired with a smooth 6-speed automatic transmission.

2. Chevrolet Tahoe 

The Equinox is perfect for families of up to five, but what’s the best choice for even larger families? It could be the Tahoe, a vehicle that can comfortably carry up to nine passengers. space can be rearranged according to your specific needs, so if you don’t need all nine seats, one or two of them can be converted into cargo space. Whichever way you configure it, you’ll have a tough time finding a more spacious vehicle. A standard 5.3-liter V-8 engine with 355 horsepower will give you enough power to carry all those passengers and cargo.

3. Chevrolet Traverse

If you need up to eight seats but are more interested in fuel economy than raw power, the Traverse is a great alternative to the Tahoe. That doesn’t mean that the latter won’t give you enough power and acceleration, as it’s equipped with a standard 3.6-liter engine with up to 310 horsepower, which should be more than enough for most families. It also has great standard infotainment features to keep everyone busy on road trips, such as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration, a 7-inch touch-screen interface, and onboard Wi-Fi.

4. Chevrolet Suburban 

Last but not least, the Chevrolet Suburban is the king of spacious family vehicles. Just like the Tahoe, it can carry up to nine passengers and it’s equipped with the same standard V-8, 355 horsepower engine. They’re also similar when it comes to interior features and technology, but the Suburban is even larger. This means that the passengers in the Suburban will enjoy more leg and headroom, but also a larger maximum cargo capacity. If you feel that the Tahoe is still a little short of your family’s needs for interior space, the Suburban will definitely fill that gap.

All families are different and have different needs, but most family car drivers basically want the same things from their vehicle: enough space to comfortably fit everyone in along with their baggage, enough power to carry all that weight, and modern safety and infotainment technology to keep everyone safe and entertained along the way. Any of these Chevrolet models tick all those boxes, so it’s up to you to decide which one fits your family best.
