MAMA stands for the Midwest Automotive Media Association, and they are well aware of how the acronym reads. They even purposely describe their award winners as “favorites,” as in “Mama’s favorites.” This fall, they named seven “favorites,” each in a different category. Benna Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram is pleased to tell you that the innovative Wrangler Rubicon X 4xe is MAMA’s Favorite Off-Road Vehicle. All seven categories will be finalists for the MAMA’s Favorite Vehicle title for 2024. About MAMA The Midwest Automotive Media Association was formed 33 years ago and now comprises 273 automotive journalists and public relations professionals from across the US and Canada. As part of their job, the automotive journalists individually test drive vehicles for their respective media organizations. Once in the spring and twice in the fall, they gather to view vehicles together and compare notes. They convene at the MAMA’s Favorites Fall Fest to vote on the category winners. New Awards Previously, MAMA only issued awards for Family Vehicle of the Year and Luxury Family Vehicle of the Year. Those awards are now two out of seven award categories. The change reflects the great diversity of vehicles that cannot be contained to the definition of family or luxury vehicles. This includes performance vehicles, off-road vehicles, pickup trucks, and EVs. Candidate vehicles must be new, redesigned, or significantly changed. The seven category winners were selected from over 100 possible candidate vehicles. “With more than 100 new, redesigned, or refreshed vehicles MAMA members could drive during 2023, it was time to assess the breadth and depth of product at each event and for the year as a whole,” said Robert Duffer, MAMA President. “You could say MAMA loves all of her vehicles equally, but everyone knows there’s only one MAMA’s Favorite.” Wrangler 4xe: Electrifying the Trail While the MAMA jurors did not explain why they selected the Wrangler 4xe or the other category winners, we can make a strong guess. “4xe” is Jeep for plug-in hybrid. Thus, the Wrangler Rubicon X 4xe combines its 2.0-liter inline-4 with a 17.3 kWh battery and electric motor for a total system power of 375 horsepower, controlled by an 8-speed automatic transmission. MPGe is rated at 49, and you have 22 miles of EV battery use after a full charge, which you can do overnight from a regular household socket. Jeep is installing solar-powered charge stations at the trail heads of key off-roading trails in the US so you can fully charge your 4xe before silently forging the trail. When the EV miles expire, you simply drive the 4xe as a standard gas-powered engine; no recharging is necessary. The Wrangler 4xe model line includes five grades, of which the Rubicon X is at the top, with features like front and rear locking differentials and an electronic sway bar disconnect system. Inside, you will find Nappa leather seats, an Alpine Audio system, and a native navigation system. On February 8th at the 2024 Chicago Auto Show, during a MAMA-hosted breakfast, MAMA will announce which of the seven finalists will be awarded MAMA’s Favorite Vehicle for 2024. Since these finalists are, by definition, models representing very different categories, they will be judged by what they offer to their respective categories, not against each other. But if you enjoy off-roading, you already have your MAMA’s favorite, which you can explore and test drive at Benna Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram.

We all want the cars we drive to be safe, but the priority of safety rises as we add other people as passengers, and even more so when those passengers are family. Consequently, a high safety rating may resonate a bit stronger on a minivan designed for hauling families than, say, a Dodge Challenger Hellcat. Thus, Benna Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram is pleased to inform you that the 2023 Chrysler Pacifica has earned a Top Safety Pick rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). To earn an IIHS Top Safety Pick rating, a vehicle must have the following qualifications: Good rating – the highest possible – in the driver- and passenger-side small overlap front tests and original moderate overlap front test Acceptable or good rating in the updated side test Acceptable or good headlights standard Advanced or Superior rating for daytime vehicle-to-pedestrian front crash prevention Pacifica was ranked “Good” in IIHS tests that simulate three of the most common types of real-world crashes: Driver-side small overlap frontal impact Passenger-side small overlap frontal impact Moderate overlap frontal impact In addition, the Pacifica’s standard Pedestrian Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) received an advanced rating in both daytime and nighttime testing. The 2024 Chrysler Pacifica Plug-In Hybrid Pinnacle remains the first and only plug-in hybrid in the segment, achieving more than 80 miles per gallon equivalent (MPGe), an all-electric range of more than 30 miles and a total range of more than 500 miles. Chrysler points to the Pacifica’s robust body structure, which features multiple uses of advanced high-strength and ultra-high-strength steel, along with meticulous crumple zone design, contributing to these results. “The Chrysler Pacifica is America’s most awarded minivan for seven years running, and 2023 Chrysler Pacifica stands alone among minivans with its 97 standard-equipment safety and security features and its renowned versatility,” said Chrysler Brand CEO Chris Feuell. “The total package delivers the superior level of driving confidence consumers want and deserve.” In 2020, IIHS revised its rating system to place greater emphasis on AEB and headlight functionality. Because LED provides a balanced beam of light that also minimizes glare for oncoming traffic, the 2023 Pacifica features standard LED headlamps, daytime running lamps, fog lamps, and taillamps. The minivan remains the most versatile and comfortable automotive genre for daily family activities and taking the clan on a cross-country trip. Chrysler created the minivan segment 40 years ago and continues to innovate the category with the Pacifica, adding to that versatility by being the only Minivan to offer both a hybrid drivetrain and, most notably for our area, all-wheel drive in the mix.

Residual value is a prominent term in the leasing world, but it’s also an important factor for people looking to have the lowest possible vehicle ownership costs. Vehicles that hold their value reduce the overall cost of ownership and make trading in or selling much easier later on. J.D. Power recently awarded three Stellantis vehicles with residual value awards for 2024, including the Wagoneer, Jeep Wrangler, and Ram ProMaster. The 2024 Wagoneer is predicted to hold its value the best out of the crowded large SUV field, while the Jeep Wrangler and Ram ProMaster took awards in their respective classes. U.S. Head of Sales, Jeff Kommor said, “This repeat distinction demonstrates Wagoneer is more than a trailblazer for cutting-edge innovation and style. Wagoneer consistently delivered that most fundamental requirement of a sales transaction - lasting value for the customer. And that’s something we will never lose sight of.” The Wagoneer got an update for 2024 that expanded availability of the Hurricane inline-six engine to all models. It makes 420 horsepower and 468 pound-feet of torque, giving the SUV a best-in-class 10,000-pound tow rating. Jeep gave the Wrangler a mid-cycle refresh for the 2024 model year. It gained updated exterior styling with a revised grille and new wheel designs. The best-selling plug-in hybrid 4xe powertrain is now available in less expensive entry-level trims. It also got a massively improved cabin with upgraded finishes and a larger touchscreen. In addition, Jeep installed power-adjustable seats for the first time in a Wrangler. The Ram ProMaster gained new features, including an available heated steering wheel and heated windshield, parking sensors with rear automatic braking, and more. The full-size commercial van is available in a range of configurations, including two wheelbases, two roof heights, and multiple body styles. It also offers best-in-class cargo and payload capacities. If you’re interested in the new Wagoneer, Jeep Wrangler, or Ram ProMaster, Benna Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram has you covered. We’ve got a wide selection of all the new models and would love to show you all the new tech, features, and safety equipment. We can also help custom order a model that you don’t see on our lot, and we have a range of finance and service options to help you find and maintain the vehicle of your dreams.

We’ve all heard the old adage: “Everything’s bigger in Texas”. Ask any Texan, and they will tell you that Texas is big. Big enough that they not only have their own Auto Writers Association (TAWA), but an association big enough to meet each fall for their annual Texas Truck Rodeo. Here they evaluate all varieties of new trucks and SUVs. At the end, they name winners in multiple categories. This year Stellantis’ truck-focused Ram brand and SUV-focused Jeep brand took home nine awards, which was more than any other manufacturer at the competition. “Ram trucks brought their A-game again this year, winning several consecutive awards, including the Full-size Pickup Truck of Texas, and scoring the highest for overall personal appeal, which is significant because Texas is the truck capital of the US,” said Teia Collier, TAWA president. “We also enjoyed the lineup from the Jeep brand, with several vehicles that were the stars of their categories offering incredible performance, craftsmanship and capability.” 32 TAWA members spent a weekend in late September at Eagle Canyon Raceway in Decatur, Texas, taking trucks and SUVs on the road, off the road, and on the track to evaluate competing vehicles side-by-side. Consideration is given to everything from exterior/interior styling and off-road capability, to the entrant’s overall utility, value, and performance. The Nine awards taken home by Jeep and Ram were: Full-Size Pickup Truck: 2023 Ram 1500 Off-Road Pickup Truck: 2023 Ram 1500 TRX Luxury Pickup Truck: 2023 Ram 1500 Limited Heavy Duty Truck: 2023 Ram Heavy Duty Rebel Highest Personal Appeal: 2023 Ram 1500 Mid-Size SUV: 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee Off-Road SUV: 2024 Jeep Wrangler Best Performance: 2024 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 Best Feature Award: Stellantis Uconnect 5 Nav System They didn’t have snow or an opportunity to give the heating systems or heated seats a workout, but pretty much everything else they did can relate to what we put our trucks through here in the dairy state. If you are looking for a mid-size truck, heavy-duty truck, a capable SUV, or even just a great infotainment system, you will find the winners right here at Benna Dodge Chrysler Jeep and Ram.

Decades ago, the rent-a-car business competed as heavily in advertising as the auto insurance trade does now. Hertz was the undisputed leader and made sure everyone knew, so Avis came up with a long-running campaign proudly stating, “We’re number Two! We try harder!” Well, Ram (formerly Dodge) has been number 3 in sales under Ford and Chevrolet in light-duty pickup trucks, and Car and Driver seems convinced that being number three means they try even harder. And succeed in doing so. That appears to be the theme as they describe why they have again named the Ram 1500 among their 10 Best Trucks and SUVs, something the Ram 1500 has done every year since the 2019 introduction of the current design. They first point out the broadness of the Ram 1500 lineup from the no-frills Tradesman work trucks to “ luxe Limiteds with interiors to rival a Range Rover”. The publication is also a big fan of the available air springs for all four wheels, which can lower the body on the highway or raise it for off-road use. They additionally call out the multi-hinge tailgate and its useful ability to swing out on either side as well as work in a conventional manner. Their summation: “Everywhere you look, there's evidence of creative thinking and the license to chase ideas that don't fit pickup preconceptions.” Car and Driver also points out that the Ram never forgets that it is a truck and trucks should work hard. They praise the available RAMBox that allows you to store your tools securely without infringing on bed space. And they don’t overlook that when properly equipped, the Ram 1500 can tow over 12,000 pounds. It isn’t lost on Car and Driver that they bestowed this honor on the 2024 Ram 1500 even as it is at the end of its life cycle, and there are big changes planned for the 2025 model, including a pair of turbocharged inline-6 engines, a plug-in hybrid version, new interior, and hands-free highway driving. Not being the top in sales doesn’t mean you aren’t the best. Just think of some number-one TV shows you didn’t watch, but everyone else did. Trucks are what Ram does, and they will keep being creative, make the best trucks they can, build their fan base and accept awards. As Car and Driver points out, they make a truck for everyone, including you, and you can find it at Benna Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Superior, WI.

The 2023 Grand Wagoneer by Jeep has taken the luxury SUV world by storm. With an all-new advertising campaign with Derek and Hannah Jeter, heaps of praise by journalists and car buyers alike, the Grand Wagoneer now has been named Newsweek’s Best Full-Size SUV in their annual 2023 Autos Awards competition. The Wagoneer was also given an award for Best Family-Friendly Technology and Best Passenger Ecosystem. What Is Newsweek? Newsweek was founded as a weekly print magazine in 1933 and since then, has been one of the most trusted and respected news sources in America. What This Means For Grand Wagoneer “For Grand Wagoneer to be recognized by Newsweek as the Best Full-Size SUV for two years in a row is a testament to what we set out to do every day – provide the most premium large SUV,” said Jim Morrison, senior vice president and head of Jeep brand North America. “This award is validation that the Grand Wagoneer is tops in its segment, offering unsurpassed performance and capability and premium materials and features, such as available Amazon Fire TV Built-in and exclusive McIntosh audio.” Engine & Towing The Wagoneer is powered by a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged inline-6 that produces 420 horsepower and 468 lb-ft of torque, while the Grand Wagoneer, is powered by the same twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline-6, dubbed the 510, and outputs 510 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque. Both vehicles feature an 8-speed automatic transmission. Depending on the axle ratio and having 2WD or 4WD, the Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer are able to tow from 5,870 lbs up to 10,000 lbs. Long Wheelbase The long wheelbase Wagoneer L and Grand Wagoneer L are 12 inches longer and have a wheelbase that is 7 inches longer than the standard wheelbase SUVs. Best Family-Friendly Tech As mentioned earlier, the Wagoneer was also awarded the Best Family-Friendly Technology and Best Passenger Ecosystem. The Wagoneer models feature a heads-up display, frameless digital gauge cluster, premium McIntosh sound system, a 10.25-inch interactive display for the front passenger, Amazon Fire TV built into the rear 10.1-inch screens, and a total of 75 inches of digital screen area. All models have the impressive and award-winning Uconnect 5 infotainment system that features wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard, as well as various new convenience and connected services to keep passengers enjoying the ride. Rear passengers also get their own climate controls, along with Relax Mode, which uses the front screens to display soothing videos of the Aurora Borealis, a fireplace fire, among others, while also playing relaxing audio. Best Passenger Ecosystem When evaluating the Best Passenger Ecosystem, Newsweek looks at the ride and comfort of an interior for all passengers, not just the driver and front passenger. When commenting about why the Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer by Jeep won the award, they said, “The Jeep Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer feature couch-like ride quality on top of supple, multi-way power-adjustable front seats. Passengers in the front and back can have their own screens complete with streaming options from Amazon and Netflix. The sliding second-row seats have heating and ventilation capabilities, and their passengers get their own temperature controls. Cargo space is expansive, especially in L versions of the model, and controls feature a high level of design finery. The cabin keeps road and vehicle noise at bay.” At Benna Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, we offer our customers some of the best prices and services. With dozens of new and used vehicles to choose from, our outstanding sales team and finance department will work hard to make sure you drive away happy.

Dodge again finished first in the 2023 annual J.D. Power U.S. Automotive Performance, Execution, and Layout (APEAL) Study among mass-market (non-luxury) brands. This marks the fourth straight year Dodge has taken first place in the study. Dodge became the only brand to earn a first-place ranking for three consecutive years in 2022, and winning a fourth consecutive year strengthens that record. Just behind, Stellantis sibling Ram took second place, also for the fourth consecutive year. Doing things Right Year After Year The 2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Jailbreak models unlock color-combination ordering restrictions and adds new factory-custom options to deliver enthusiasts the freedom to build their own “one-of-one” Dodge performance vehicle. Bolstering the victory even further is that Dodge also took first place among mass-market brands in this year’s J.D. Power U.S. Initial Quality Study (IQS). This makes Dodge the only domestic brand to achieve both top positions in the same year. Unlike the IQS study, which basically charts “things gone wrong”, the APEAL study surveys what people like and don’t like about their vehicles’ performance, design, and operation. Because their positions were switched four years ago, this marks the fifth consecutive year Dodge and Ram have taken the top two positions in the study. Dodge and Ram’s continual top-ranking positions show that people who purchased Dodge and Ram models really like their vehicles, mathematically better than any other non-luxury brand. “This outcome demonstrates that the pursuit of superior customer experience is firmly entrenched in our culture,” says Bill Kendell, who assumed leadership of Stellantis North America’s customer experience organization on July 1. “Our motto is, ‘Every Customer Counts; Every Journey Matters.’ “These are more than just words to us,” Kendell adds. “ At Stellantis, customer experience is a vocation. Now we have to take this data and really dive deep.” Bucking the Industry Trend Also noteworthy is that Dodge and Ram improved upon their 2022 APEAL scores by five and 10 points respectively, while scores for the industry as a whole declined. Unsurprisingly, each brand had a model that ranked high in their segment. The 2023 Dodge Challenger, the brand’s second best-selling model, ranked first in the Midsize Sporty segment. Ram’s 2023 best seller, the Ram 1500, ranks second among Large Light-Duty Pickups. " Dodge didn't win this award, we accepted it on behalf of the Brotherhood,” says Tim Kuniskis, Dodge brand and Ram brand CEO - Stellantis. “ We have listened and learned from them. Those lessons will inform our product development as we redefine American muscle for the next era.” That next era comes soon. Dodge is saying goodbye to its Challenger and Charger muscle cars this year, but also recently launched the 2024 Hornet crossover, which claims the highest standard power in its class and includes a plug-in hybrid version - Dodge’s first. For its part, Ram will be launching two fully-electric vehicles in the form of the Ram Promaster electric van and the Ram 1500 REV full-size light-duty pickup. As mentioned, Dodge’s and Ram's customers are very happy with their purchases. If you would like to be one of those happy customers, pay a visit to Benna Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram and take a close look at the models from both brands.

Stellantis brought back several awards from the 2023 annual Texas Automotive Writers Association (TAWA) Auto Roundup. Held in late March at Eagles Canyon Raceway in Decatur, Texas, Benna CDJR is proud to say that the Lone Star scribes showed some love for Dodge, Chrysler, and Alfa Romeo, bringing home a combined seven awards from the event. Ram and Jeep will likely get their turn when trucks are reviewed at the organization’s Texas Truck Rodeo in the fall. Dodge Hornet: Crossover Utility Vehicle of Texas The Dodge Hornet is the newest vehicle introduced across the Stellantis family and takes aim at the very popular compact crossover segment. TAWA took an instant liking to it, giving it the Utility Vehicle (CUV) of Texas title award but also bestowing honors such as Best Value, Best New Interior, and Best New Feature, for a total of four awards. The Best Feature award is for the class-exclusive PowerShot feature, which supplies a burst of 30 horsepower for the electrified Dodge Hornet R/T plug-in hybrid. The R/T has a rear-mounted motor that provides an estimated 30 miles of EV range and a combined 288 hp and 383 lb-ft of torque. Dodge Challenger SRT Black Ghost: Performance Vehicle of Texas One of the seven “Last Call” special-edition Challenger and Charger models in their final year of muscle car production, The 807-horsepower Dodge Challenger Black Ghost channels the spirit of a legendary street racer that prowled Detroit’s famed Woodward Avenue in the 1970s. Only 300 of the Black Ghost “Last Call” models will be produced, all in Pitch Black and in Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody form. Chrysler Pacifica Plug-In Hybrid: Family Vehicle of Texas Probably the least surprising of the awards, the Pacifica took the Family Vehicle of Texas award for the 6th consecutive year. Minivans are known for carrying out commuting and domestic chores during the week and then being the designated vehicle for road trips, which is a perfect scenario for a plug-in hybrid drivetrain. Yet the Pacific remains the only available plug-in hybrid minivan in the country. The Pacifica PHEV provides an estimated 30 EV miles, 80 MPGe, and more than 500 miles total range. For this and other reasons, the Pacifica is also the most awarded minivan over the last six years, with more than 170 honors and industry accolades since its introduction. Alfa Romeo Stelvio: Best Mid-Size CUV For this award, it probably didn’t hurt that votes were decided after the cars were run on the Eagles Canyon Raceway. Because while the Stelvio is a beautiful piece of machinery full of Italian design and elegant detailing, it's the performance that makes it unforgettable. It isn’t just the 280 hp and 306 lb-ft of torque, it is the character of the engine as you put it through its paces, the sublime feel of the steering as it shows its sure-footedness on the curves, and the confidence one feels from the brakes. The Stelvio is a performance thoroughbred, and TAWA recognized just that. We thank TAWA for recognizing the special nature of these Stellantis models. Of course, Benna CDJR is where you can see the all-new Dodge Hornet and Chrysler Pacifica Plug-in Hybrid up close and experience them on the road. With production limited to just 300, we may not have a Challenger SRT Black Ghost in stock, but you can experience other Challengers, learn more about the Black Ghost, and put yourself in for a pre-order until they are all spoken for.

Benna CDJR of Superior, Wisconsin, is proud to announce the Ram 1500 has won a Car and Driver 10Best award for the fifth consecutive year. Among the winning group of SUVs and trucks, Ram was the only full-size pickup to make the list. Ram offered the 2023 Ram 1500 Limited and Ram 1500 TRX for evaluation; the award applies to the entire 2023 Ram 1500 model line. Testing occurred for two weeks during which Car and Driver editors drove, measured, and evaluated more than 55 cars, trucks, SUVs, and vans. All vehicles had to have a base price at or below $110,000. To earn its 10Best award, Car and Driver states: “Each winner leads its segment and offers the refinement, practicality, and value we look for during judging. Those virtues shouldn't come at the expense of the driving experience. Satisfying performance and entertaining vehicle dynamics are a requirement for every 10Best winner, no matter its shape, size, or segment”. " For everyone looking for a full-size pickup, which is a lot of Americans, the Ram 1500 meets all your needs and exceeds expectations. Its coil-spring rear suspension provides luxury-SUV-like ride quality, making the bouncy competition feel like farm trucks," said Joey Capparella, senior editor, Car and Driver. " The Ram's interior is its most surprising and delightful attribute. The upper trim levels feature carefully selected materials—leather, metal trim, open-pore wood—and the kind of attention to detail we expect in a Mercedes-Benz S-class. Even basic versions have sound ergonomics, crisp digital displays, and buttons and knobs that are satisfying to the touch. Chrysler's luxurious Imperial brand may have died long ago, but its spirit lives on in today's Ram." Other features pointed out in their review include: Optional split tailgate Air springs for lower that Ram for loading or hooking up a trailer Lockable storage boxes in the bed walls Car and Driver isn’t alone in their assessment as J.D. Power’s most recent APEAL Study named the 2022 RAM 1500 the large light-duty pickup for the third year in a row. The APEAL Study measures the emotional bond between customers, which is determined from customer feedback about a range of vehicle attributes, from ingress and egress to driving comfort, during the first three months of ownership. We at Benna CDJR are the least surprised by these accolades. Being witness to Ram 1500’s greatness for years, stop by and test drive a Ram 1500 for your full-size pickup needs. You will not only be matched with the best truck on the market, also our unsurpassed 20-year/20,000-mile warranty, knowledgeable sales staff, and helpful Finance Department. For the fifth straight year, we congratulate Ram for their excellent product.
