Mommy Mobiles
When it comes to purchasing a vehicle, mothers prefer a combination
of style, dependability and status. In this week’s edition of ro rides, we highlight the most impressive cars for mothers on the go. –a.r.
2009 Cadillac STS
The
2009 Cadillac STS is the perfect sedan for mothers seeking advanced
safety features. Cadillac’s Lane Departure Warning system notifies
drivers when they inadvertently drift into another lane and it warns
when another car is approaching in the no-vision zone. It also has
18-inch chrome plated wheels, Sapele Pommele wood trim and standard
rear-wheel drive.
2009 Volvo S80
The
2009 Volvo S80 features an accident avoidance system that alerts the
driver when another vehicle gets too close. There is also a Whiplash
Protection System that braces the seat back and moves the headrest
forward so that the impact from an accident is reduced.
2009 Toyota Highlander
The
2009 Toyota Highlander is the quintessential vehicle for soccer moms.
It features sliding and folding second and third-row seats that allows
it to hold up to seven passengers. When both seats are folded, it has
95 cubic feet of storage space. It also has a revamped 3.5-liter V-6
engine that produces 270-hp that allows it to reach 60 mph in 7.3
seconds.
