The 2011 Ideal Vehicle Awards named Chrysler its “Most Ideal Popular Brand.”

The honor was given based on owners’ ratings of their 2011 cars and trucks. Several models were also singled out with awards, including the Dodge Challenger, Jeep Grand Cherokee and Chrysler Town & Country, which were named Most Ideal Sports Car, Most Ideal Mid-size SUV, and Most Ideal Minivan, respectively.

More than 72,000 vehicle owners were asked to rate their vehicles based on power and acceleration, ride and handling, interior roominess and cargo space.AutoPacific also asked owners if there were any characteristics that they would want to change about their vehicles. Vehicles with the least amount of changes were named the most ideal.

“Ideal Vehicle Award winners deliver the most of what consumers are really looking for in their vehicles,” said George Peterson, President of AutoPacific. “Shoppers can use the Ideal Vehicle Awards as a benchmark for vehicles that are designed and built with customers in mind.”

The Dodge Challenger, Jeep Grand Cherokee, and Town & Country, all received crucial updates for the 2011 model year. Updates to Chrysler models have included new interiors and new powertrain options.

“It’s an honor for the Chrysler brand to be recognized by AutoPacific,” said Olivier Francois, President and Chief Executive Officer, Chrysler Brand. “Recognition by the customers who buy and evaluate our vehicles proves we take consumer input very seriously in all the vehicles we design and build at Chrysler.”
