When you are shopping for a vehicle for your family, many considerations come into play such as cost, safety features, performance and more. Some parents and guardians opt for a van or SUV, some prefer cars to tote around little ones. Recently, an experienced auto journalist for MSN Autos compiled a list of 10 autos that are good choices for families. The vehicles chosen are under $30K and offer many features you’ll most likely find necessary.
The Chevy Cruze, which is all new at your Overland Park Chevy dealership, was chosen as part of this list. After finding out some more information about it’s features, we hope this will be a model you’ll consider for your family.

The Cruze also comes with a four-cylinder, turbocharged 1.4 liter engine. Though smaller than engines found in larger family options, such as the Chevy Traverse Kansas City families can find at McCarthy Chevrolet, it still packs a good punch for a four door sedan. Who says you can’t have a little bit of fun behind the wheel?
This vehicle also comes standard with many amenities that typically are or used to be add on options for similar autos, such as MP3 capability, Satellite radio, OnStar functions and much more. Even the top of the line LTZ cruise is priced well and you’ll get the added bonus of Bluetooth. If you don’t want to risk getting lost with kids in tow, consider adding in the navigation system.
