Make Family Road Trips Less Stressful with Chevrolet Technology

MT. PLEASANT, Mich.,–– During long drives to visit extended family during the holidays or summer road trips, traveling with your family all in one vehicle can be stressful. Traffic, packing, cost, and keeping the kids entertained are a few of the many stressors named in a recent survey conducted by the Harris Poll on behalf of Chevrolet. Fear not though, as the American road trip is still alive and well, with 93% of the 1,063 U.S. parents of children under 18 polled saying they enjoy road trips with their family. To make family road trips less stressful with Chevrolet technology we recommend reading on to learn about the all new Chevy models and available features.

Based on the results of the survey, two things stood out to Chevy as the main stresses and hindrances that could be avoided for parents nationwide. The most stressful thing about road trips according to American parents is traffic and other unexpected delays, with 63% of those polled indicating as such. Additionally, 56 percent of parents say that having Wi-Fi/internet connectivity would help make their family road trips more enjoyable and less stressful.

So, to make road trips a little easier for parents, Chevrolet has unveiled the all-new 2018 Traverse and 2018 Equinox designed specifically with the American family in mind. Both SUV's now offer ample storage space, USB outlets, and available 4G LTE Wi-Fi as well as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto2 compatibility. No more playing the alphabet game in the car to pass the time unless you really want to! Instead, the drive will go much quicker now that your kids can use their devices to stream movies and play games to pass the time. Plus, the 4G LTE Wi-Fi will allow drivers to always to know where traffic and backups are ahead of them on their road trip route and how to get around it, saving you from sitting in the car any longer than you have to.

Safety concerns while driving are also mitigated by the 2018 Traverse and 2018 Equinox and their advanced safety features. New safety technology including Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Rear Park Assist, Forward Collision Alert, and many other features have been engineered to take some of the guesswork out of driving and parking while ensuring the security and well-being of the passengers.
