Ten Best Family Cars of 2012 Include 2012 Toyota Prius V

Online, August 24, 2012 (Newswire.com) - The 2012 Toyota Prius V is grabbing all sorts of attention. Recently, Kelley Blue Book has recognized the Prius V as being one of their "10 Best Family Cars of 2012." The Prius V provides a spacious, comfortable ride while being notably fuel-efficient.

This five-door hatchback is known for its class-leading fuel economy, generous cargo capacity, quiet and comfortable ride while providing passengers a roomy cabin. For families looking for a larger, more family-friendly alternative to the standard Prius model, the Prius V is the perfect vehicle. Its combined fuel economy of 42 mpg saves families money at the pump and gas-station visits especially when traveling.

The cabin of the Prius v features a big cargo area with thick folding rear seatbacks that sit flat. The front passenger seat can even fold flat when extra room is needed. The wide load floor is low but the hatch has a handy indented area to help close it. All doors feature pockets and beverage holders while a deep-covered center bin and an extra-large dual-level glove compartment allow for adequate storage of small items.

Several other popular vehicles made Kelley Blue Book's list this year including the 2012 Chrysler 300, 2012 Honda Civic, 2012 Chevrolet Suburban, 2012 Kia Sorrento, 2012 Honda CR-V, 2012 Subaru Outback, 2012 Ford Flex and 2012 Honda Odyssey. Topping of the list for 2012 is the 2012 Volkswagen Passat.

Although all ten vehicles making the list this year are different,
they all offer families spacious, safe cabins while staying within a typical family budget. Whether families are looking for large cargo space or high fuel-efficiency, Kelley Blue Book has found great family-friendly vehicles for 2012.
