FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
MIDWEST AUTOMOTIVE MEDIA ASSOCIATION ANNOUNCES 2020 KIA TELLURIDE AS FAMILY VEHICLE OF THE YEAR AND 2020 LINCOLN AVIATOR AS LUXURY FAMILY VEHICLE OF THE YEAR
CHICAGO (Feb. 6, 2020) – The Midwest Automotive Media Association (MAMA) announced the 2020 Kia Telluride as the tenth annual Family Vehicle of the Year and the 2020 Lincoln Aviator as the winner of the Luxury Family Vehicle of the Year award today during the Chicago Auto Show's Media Preview.
MAMA, a nonprofit association of automotive journalists and public relations professionals, developed these two awards to assist car-shopping families in making a wise and knowledgeable decision when selecting a new vehicle. Both the Telluride and Aviator will be on display at the 2020 Chicago Auto Show, Feb. 8-17.
"Choosing a family vehicle is an important decision. Whether it's a premium-brand or mainstream model, it should be versatile, reliable, efficient, and reasonably priced. MAMA members pooled their expertise and experience to select the best family vehicles from an outstanding group of new and significantly refreshed models, and the Kia Telluride and Lincoln Aviator came out on top," said award coordinator Tim Healey.
To qualify for the award, vehicles had to have four doors, appear at one of MAMA's two annual rallies, and be new or significantly updated within a year of the 2019 Spring Rally, which took place last May. The MAMA Spring and Fall Rallies feature roughly 100 manufacturer vehicles for journalists to drive and evaluate.
