The Kelley Blue Book Internet site said that new-car buyers don’t necessarily have to shop a luxury brand to get an extremely comfortable car, noting that mainstream money can buy some of the quietest cabins on the road, along with many of the comfort-oriented features that debuted upmarket just a few years ago.
“For many car shoppers, comfort is among the top factors in their choice of a new vehicle, especially with so many Americans spending countless hours commuting,” said Jack R. Nerad, executive editorial director and executive market analyst for KBB.com, in a statement.
