The Kelley Blue Book Editorial staff created a list compiled of stand-out vehicles that are great choices for daily commutes and extended vacation road trips. The KBB.com team considered features such as a smooth drive, technology and seat comfort. A few of the list's notable contenders include the newly redesigned Toyota Camry and the Hyundai Sonata, as well as the Nissan Altima, with its "Zero Gravity" front seats inspired by NASA research.

Also included in this smooth driving, easy riding list of vehicles are a few of Kelley Blue Book's Best Buys for 2015, specifically Midsize Sedan winner, the 2015 Honda Accord, Small SUV winner, the 2015 Honda CR-V, and Full-Size Car champion, the 2015 Chevrolet Impala.
