- The 2018 Dodge Durango was named NEMPA Official Winter SUV of the Year
- The 2018 Jeep® Grand Cherokee Trackhawk earns the Extreme Vehicle Award
- The 2018 Jeep Wrangler named NEMPA Heritage Award winner 2018
- The 2018 Ram 1500 named Best in Class — Pickup Truck
These impressive accolades means that FCA US LLC brand vehicles cleaned up at the eighth annual Winter Vehicle Competition hosted by the New England Motor Press Association (NEMPA), taking home more awards than any other manufacturer at the annual event.
“The Durango has the ability to handle everything New England weather can throw at it. With seating for seven, engine choices that can satisfy just about any buyer and the ability to negotiate roads less traveled, the Durango was the clear choice for the NEMPA Official Winter SUV of the Year. Once again, Jeep had a strong showing with the Grand Cherokee being a perennial winner and when powered by a 707-horsepower engine, it blows away the competition. The Wrangler, from its earliest days to the latest version available today, is legendary. The Ram 1500 was an easy choice from NEMPA members, thanks in part to its controlled, comfortable ride, powertrain choices and interiors that can rival some luxury cars. The Ram 1500 can be summed up in three words: capable, comfortable and powerful,” said John Paul, NEMPA president.
