Choosing the best family vehicle in 2025 involves considering various factors: space, versatility, comfort, technology, safety... But beyond these criteria, today's families seek models that reflect their lifestyle and personality. Understanding that each family is unique, here's a selection of the best family vehicles across different categories!

Chrysler Grand Caravan -- for the traditional family

The Grand Caravan is a minivan cherished by Canadian families, which is why it is now exclusively available in our market!

Though it transitioned from Dodge to Chrysler and underwent several stylistic changes, it remains a family car par excellence. Versatile and flexible, it easily adapts to the needs of busy families!

It starts with a spacious, comfortable cabin for 7 passengers, with easily accessible rows. Everyday practicality is emphasized with a cargo space ranging from 915 L in the trunk to 3,978 L by lowering both rows or 2,477 L behind the second row.

Practicality isn't just about space, and Chrysler understands this, offering features such as:

• Power-operated tailgate and sliding doors
• The Stow 'n Go storage system, allowing seats to be stored in the floor or create additional storage space
• A Second-row sunshade
• Easy-to-clean leatherette seats
• Multiple cup holders
• 3-zone automatic climate control

The Grand Caravan is offered in a well-equipped trim providing great value, the SXT trim. Here, you get everything you need: heated front seats, 12-way power adjustments, an intuitive Uconnect 5 multimedia system, and more!

The minivan is equipped with a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine delivering 287 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission with e-Shift.

Chrysler Pacifica -- for the modern family

Built on the same platform as the Grand Caravan, the Pacifica stands out in the minivan landscape with its elegant design. More importantly, it brings a touch of sophistication, particularly in terms of technology and powertrain.

One of its advantages, especially when compared to the Grand Caravan, is the available hybrid engine option! This combines the 3.6-liter V6 engine with an electric motor for a combined power of 260 horsepower and 231 lb-ft of torque.

Moreover, it allows you to travel up to 835 km without stopping at the gas station! Perfect for long family trips. As it is a plug-in hybrid, you also benefit from an electric range of 51 km, significantly reducing your daily fuel consumption.

The gas engine is available with all-wheel drive for maximum confidence on our winter roads. The towing capacity of 3,600 lb allows you to take your larger toys on any trip.

The cabin enhances family comfort with features, standard or optional, such as:

Safety is a crucial consideration for parents, and the Pacifica is well-positioned: it has received the IIHS Top Safety Pick award in recent years. It also offers several driver assistance features that make daily maneuvers easier!

Jeep Grand Cherokee -- for the sophisticated family

With an approach where luxury meets adventure, the Grand Cherokee is a must-have in its category. It stands out significantly from conventional midsize SUVs with a premium experience that appeals to demanding parents without sacrificing the necessary versatility for active families.

Moreover, its off-road capabilities allow you to take the family to discover the most beautiful corners of the continent. Road tests of the Grand Cherokee show a confident, stable, and smooth ride on various terrains thanks to Jeep's suspension and all-wheel-drive systems.

Positioned below the Wagoneer in terms of size and price, the Grand Cherokee is still very practical for families. Depending on your needs, you can opt for a 5 or 7-seat configuration (L version). And it doesn't lack capacity:

• Grand Cherokee cargo volume: 1,068 to 2,005 L
• Grand Cherokee L cargo volume: 487 -- 1,328 -- 2,395 L
• Maximum towing capacity: 6,200 lb

Whether it's luggage, furniture, or a camper for your summer road trips, it's ready for all your adventures! Moreover, the hands-free tailgate is designed for parents with full hands.

Inside, the cabin exudes refinement with its premium materials and numerous amenities. You can even enjoy:

• 16-way power-adjustable front seats with a massage function
• Heated and ventilated seats in the first two rows
• Nappa or Palermo leather upholstery
• A Central screen, a passenger screen, and rear screens with Amazon Fire TV

You can choose between a V6 or a 4xe plug-in hybrid engine under the hood, both offering remarkable power.

Jeep Wrangler Unlimited -- for the adventure-loving family

While there are plenty of minivans and three-row SUVs, few vehicles offer as unique a family experience as the 2025 Jeep Wrangler. A true icon in its category, it will appeal to parents who refuse to give up their escape plans with the arrival of children. Moreover, it allows you to create amazing family memories!

The Unlimited version, which simply refers to the 4-door model, offers a spacious cabin to transport all passengers in comfort. The removable soft and hard tops transform your outdoor adventures by providing an immersive experience that delights both young and old.

A wide range of trims is available to suit your budget.

In terms of engines, you have the choice between a V6, a HEMI V8, and a plug-in hybrid engine, simultaneously reducing your gas bills.
