Where Do You Live?


State:



The term “Yuppie” stands for “Young Upwardly Mobile Professional”. If you are between your twenties to mid-thirties, reside in a large or urban area and have a white collar job then chances are that you are a yuppie. These ambitious young people tend to be constantly on the go and very busy with work and social lives. A perfect “yuppie car” would have to be super stylish and contemporary, offer a luxurious and upscale interior (remember these folks are upwardly mobile) and Bluetooth compatibility since young professionals tend to heavily depend on their phone for both business and personal reasons. Here are the top picks for the ultimate Yuppie Automobile.

Volvo S60 - Perfect For The Movers And Shakers

The Volvo S60 is an excellent car for the hard working professional with lofty ambitions. This charming European midsize luxury sedan boasts a polished and edgy exterior while offering a plush interior with a seven inch LCD screen, a trip computer and the all-important Bluetooth feature. With an engine that puts out 300 HP and 325 lb feet of torque, the S60 is perfect for A-personality go-getters who like to live and also drive in the fast lane. Standard features include an AWD system and a transmission with six speeds. With its European style, significant amount of power and sweet interior, this vehicle is ideal for a busy professional.

Jaguar XJ – Ideal For The Yuppie Who Has “Arrived”.

With the price tag of around $72,500 for the base model, this auto is for the successful yuppie who has hit the big time. Perhaps he or she made it big in the stock market or a CEO in an internet start-up; either way these folks worked hard to get to where they are at and what better way to enjoy your hard work than driving around town in the sleek XJ. This car is so sleek and sophisticated with an incredible V8 engine with 385 horsepower. Its body structure is constructed out of aluminum and supposedly even more lightweight than that of the super small Mini Cooper. The powerful XJ reaches the sixty mph mark in just 5.4 seconds while the Supercharged achieves this in 4.9 seconds.

Land Rover – For The Urban Yuppie In Touch With His Or Her Sense Of Adventure

The Land Rover is a great yuppie car because it’s a “Land Rover”; it shows that you’ve arrived and have the financial means to purchase the ultimate luxury SUV, just because you can. However, the Land Rover has some serious off-roading abilities and therefore perfect for the yuppie who needs to appear professional all week long but likes to let loose and enjoy the outdoors on the weekend.  This SUV combines refined luxury with amazing off-roading capabilities. Features include a blind spot system, automatic cruise control, a USB port, and seats appointed in fine leather. Pricing stars in the $71k range and may increase depending on the trim and options selected.

These are our top picks for vehicles that would meet the needs of young successful professionals due to their cool looks, modern technology and refined luxury. Showing off a bit never hurt anyone and when you’re on your way to the top (or if you’re already on top) there’s no harm in reveling in your success with an expensive car. After all, what is the point of working so hard if you can’t enjoy it?
