If you need a vehicle that you can drive to and from work every day, you are going to want to purchase a vehicle that does well on the road and can handle the high mileage that you are likely to quickly rack-up on your vehicle.

1. Gas Mileage

One of the biggest considerations when you are on the road all the time should be gas mileage. You are going to want to purchase a vehicle that gets a lot of miles per gallon. This will allow you to stop into the gas station less and will help you save money on gas.

If you are looking to get a car that will get you really far on a little amount of gas, you may want to look into purchasing a hybrid car, that uses both electric and gas to power its motor. A hybrid car can help you cut down your every few days trips to the gas station to a weekly stop in said, while also saving you money. With a hybrid vehicle, you get the great mileage that comes with an electric car, but the range of a gas-powered vehicle.

2. Electric Powered Seats

When you spent a lot of time in your vehicle, you want to be able to customize the seat settings so that you are comfortable when you are driving. Go for a vehicle that has electric powered seats. You want a vehicle that allows you to not just control how far forward or backward your seat is, but also the tilt of the bottom of the seat, as well as the amount of lumber, support the back of the seat provides you with. A seat that provides you with the ability to really customize the experience will be far more comfortable to spend time in during your hours on the road.

3. Safety Features

Next, your commuter vehicle should have some modern safety features that will help keep you safe.

Look for a vehicle that has lane assist, which is a safety program that sends out a visual and audio alert when you start to drift out of your lane. It can also gently nudge you back into your lane. For a tired commuter, this is a must-have safety feature.

If you drive a lot of busy roads, a vehicle that will brake for you when someone stops suddenly in front of you can help protect you from rear-ending someone. Look for safety features that will help you reduce the chance of accidents on your daily commute.

When looking for a commuter car, your top concern should be gas mileage, followed by comfort and safety features. To learn more, contact a dealership that specializes in used Chevrolet for sale.
