Chrysler and Ram brands win awards at the GAAMA’s 2016 Family Car Challenge

The all-new 2017 Chrysler Pacifica was honored with the top awards as the 'Best Family Car' and 'Best Value' at the Family Car Challenge hosted by the Greater Atlanta Automotive Media Association (GAAMA). The 2016 Ram 1500 also won accolades this year as the 'Best
Family Pickup Truck'.

More than 40 journalists attended the event and drove 24 vehicles from various manufacturers. Journalists voted for their favorite vehicles after driving scenic routes at the Lanier Islands Resort and Conference Center in Buford, Ga.

"GAAMA works hard at this event to evaluate a variety of vehicles for family friendliness and functionality," said Christopher Lawrence, GAAMA President and CEO of AutoAcademics. "Our members were thoroughly impressed by the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica. It’s a home run for today's busy families, offering versatility, functionality, technology and an attractive design all in one vehicle."

Recognizing the important role trucks often play in family life nowadays, GAAMA added the Family Truck category and awarded this honor to the 2016 Ram 1500.
