When carrying out a test drive, you should take the whole family with you so that passengers in practice can test the convenience of boarding while the car is moving. Due to the different geometry of the body part, such cars have a different interior layout.

While the crossover in the third row during the trip can comfortably accommodate children, the adult passengers in these seats will be cramped and uncomfortable, especially during long trips. Installation additional seats in such salons is made at the expense of the trunk.

Minivans

Such 7-seater family cars of all brands are characterized by less cross-country ability, since they have a low ground clearance and are designed for city trips and good roads. They have front-wheel drive, a more spacious cabin, the area of ​​which is increased due to the high body and the ability to fold the rear passenger seats.

In the minivan, all members big family will be comfortable during long and short trips due to the spacious and high cabin. If necessary, you can fold the rear seats and increase the volume of the trunk. However, on such a machine it will be difficult to move off-road, this should be taken into account when choosing a suitable vehicle for family transportation.

Crossovers and SUVs

All seven-seat crossovers and SUVs have a high ground clearance, due to which the height of the passenger compartment is slightly reduced. Their body shape resembles a station wagon, additional passenger seats in such cars are created by reducing the trunk space and unfolding the third row. These are four-wheel drive vehicles that can drive not only around the city, but off-road. That is why such roomy cars are more in demand by Russian families today than minivans.

In comparison with five-seater models, family 7-seater crossovers, SUVs and minivans have a number of indisputable advantages, the main of which is the spaciousness of the cabin and trunk, as well as the variety of the model range, which allows you to choose a car for comfortable transportation of all family members over short and long distances.

Advantages

disadvantages

The disadvantages of family jeeps and minivans include less maneuverability in urban environments, higher fuel consumption and higher cost of ownership. However, when comparing the needs of a large family for comfortable mobility and the possibility of universal use of such a car, the disadvantages of 7-seater passenger cars in comparison with 5-seater analogues become not so significant.

Comparison with eight-seater or larger vehicles

Cars with a capacity of more than 7 people belong to minibuses or cars superior comfort, therefore, they cost significantly more than a seven-seater minivan or an SUV with an additional row of folding passenger seats... Usually minibuses are used for commercial purposes and are on the balance sheet legal entities... Cars designed to carry 7 passengers have advantages and disadvantages over such models that should be considered when choosing a roomy vehicle.

Advantages

Roomy crossover or minivan with three passenger rows for 7 passengers differs from cars with large size salon, lower cost and compactness. When transporting a large family in urban conditions, it is always necessary to take into account the dimensions of the body, which affect the maneuverability of the car.

A car that is too large will require high maintenance and fuel costs, which can negatively affect the family budget. In addition, minibuses with a large cabin are not designed for travel outside the city, as they have a low ground clearance, like their 7-seater counterparts. In addition, for cars at 7 passenger seats you will not need to obtain category D rights.

disadvantages

Best family cars

According to some American analysts, a large family can buy a car that costs $ 18,000-30,000.

They have identified several models that can be distinguished preference on our roads:

1. Mazda 5. Differs in metamorphosis (niches are installed in the rear under the cushions of the separate seats, which fit the central seat with a table with cup holders).
2. Citroen Grand C4 Picasso. Differs in absolute safety and capacity, has eight airbags and a huge one.
3. Renault Scenic. It is a large car for a large company.
4. Roomster. Differs in an unusual look and great functionality. A great option for a family trip to the sea.

The best family cars were selected by American journalists. Most of them are sold in Russia.

The choice was made between passenger cars, crossovers and minivans most suitable for family use. All these models are distinguished by high quality workmanship, spaciousness and other features that are important for a family car.

According to the editors, the best family car in the compact car segment is Chevrolet cruze... According to her, this model, despite its small size, has such a large interior space that you can even compare this car with models of a higher segment.

The model was named the best hatchback Toyota Prius which is a true bestseller with a hybrid power plant... It is worth noting that hybrid cars have recently begun to gain great popularity in America. However, Russian consumers are afraid of quite high price similar cars.

The best full-size premium sedan was Mercedes-Benz E-Class... This vehicle is recommended for families who prioritize luxury and style in their car. In addition, the model has entertainment system, which is available to passengers in the rear spacious seat.

Best family station wagon, according to the editorial board, is the Subaru Outback.

With this model, families can get all the benefits of a true crossover, but the fuel economy is on par with a passenger car. The model is quite roomy. In addition, the rear seat of the model folds perfectly, which makes it possible to provide the station wagon with a more impressive luggage compartment... In addition, this model is distinguished by the flexibility of configurations: the basic version of the car has all the necessary qualities and is relatively inexpensive.

In addition, the Acura TL models were included in the list of the best passenger cars, Ford fusion, Buick Verano and Buick Crosse.

As the best compact crossover was voted Honda cr-v.

This car is one of the pioneers in the segment and one of its true bestsellers for all 4 generations.

The latest version of the model has received some criticism regarding accessibility power units and the low quality of the interior. However, thanks to its spacious interior, high fuel efficiency and rich basic equipment, this model is at the peak of popularity among the models of its segment both in the United States and around the world.

The Jeep Grand Cherokee was named the best 5-seater crossover. This model is highly regarded for the performance of the cabin, which is, among other things, one of the best in the class in terms of ergonomics and comfort. However, in terms of spaciousness, it lags slightly behind other models. In addition, the Grand Cherokee, in comparison with many competitors, was able to maintain acceptable SUV capabilities over the course of evolution. A car is capable of more than driving on a country road.

The best compact premium SUV is the Audi Q5... Experts call it one of its main advantages great pleasure from driving, as the car has some of the best dynamic performance in its segment. In addition, the model has wide range possible engines and a chic interior, but slightly behind the competition in terms of free space.

This spacious, eight-seater minivan can be driven like a simple car, but its dynamics are impressive and powered by a 258 hp V6 engine. Even standard equipment Odyssey has a five-step automatic transmission gear. In addition, among other options, the car has climate control for rear passengers and a cooling compartment for food and drinks.

In addition, other winners in the minivan and crossover group have been named, including the Lexus RX350. Toyota Highlander Hybrid, Chevrolet Suburban, Chevrolet Traverse, Cadillac escalade and Lincoln MKT.

The magazine US News & World Report, which compiled this rating, has been operating since 1933 and is considered one of the most important and authoritative publications in America. He has been reviewing new cars in the US market annually since 2007. The best family cars, photos of which are also posted in the reviews, are determined in a combination of "price-quality".

For example, Mercedes-Benz class E for our country, most likely, can be attributed to the premium class due to the positioning of the brand and the cost of the car.
But Ford Fusion, Subaru Outback and Honda CR-V can be safely attributed to family models in Russia.

The main reason for these differences is the different income per family in different countries and the price of these cars, which is very different due to the peculiarities of taxes and legislation, depending on the country of manufacture of the cars.

Watch this video, it will help you make your choice:

Happy choice and safe driving!

Today an important niche in lineup car manufacturers are occupied by family cars. In this article, we will look at all their advantages, tell you how to choose a family car, and give a comparison rating.

A complete catalog of family cars is presented.

Features of choosing a family car

Security

The bigger, the better. From 6 airbags, seat belts, inflatable curtains, airbags for knees, coupled with electronic road assistants in the form of ABS, ESP and other abbreviations by ear - the basis modern car for the family.

If the family has Small child, then you need to choose a car with Isofix - special mounts for a child seat.

Reliability

So that the car does not let you down on a long trip, choose a brand with a history of quality models. It sounds like a universal advice about nothing, but it makes a lot more sense than advice about specific brands. Explore feedback forums real owners: Select several models that suit your requirements and read about them in real life.

Comfort

Comfort is not for a sports car. Not for a car that is used to carry more cargo. This is for the car, where the whole family will be comfortable.

• Ergonomic driving position: everything important is at hand. Ideal if you don't have to leave the backrest to select the desired function on the dashboard. A good addition is a multifunction steering wheel with the ability to control machine systems with one click. The less you are distracted by the car, the more attention is paid to the road - safety is paramount.
• Comfort rear passengers: a family car should be comfortable for everyone. Therefore, we are heading for cars with a spacious rear sofa. It is important that the knees of a tall passenger do not touch the pushed back into a comfortable position front seat... There should also be a margin of space above the head, it is better if it is with a cousin.
• Optimum temperature: It is imperative that the car has a comfortable microclimate, regardless of the weather outside. Therefore, for family use, cars with climate control (or at least air conditioning) are most preferred. Heated seats will not be superfluous.
• Storage spaces (glove compartment, niches, shelves, compartments). The storage system inside the car (family!) Is a useful feature! Each manufacturer, in one way or another, tries to equip the interior with compartments for useful things. Someone succeeds in this better, and then a scattering of useful little things fits comfortably in numerous pockets, shelves and niches.

Trunk capacity

Every day in a family car is different. In a heap of various tasks, a large trunk will definitely not be superfluous. Landmark - 400-500 liters of payload with the ability to fold the rear row.

Profitability

Everything is here: the size of the transport tax, fuel consumption, the cost of maintenance and repair. Keep in mind that a family car is called for a reason, and is usually needed not only by you. Keeping the car in service for a week or two will be costly and inconvenient.

Type and body of a car

For the role of family cars, hatchbacks (exclusively 5-door), sedans, station wagons, compact vans, minivans, crossovers and SUVs are best suited. The difficulty of choosing a body type is due to the fact that each of them has its own advantages and no less significant disadvantages.

Hatchbacks

• Additional safety, which is achieved due to high maneuverability, comparative compactness and wheel spacing along the edges of the body;
• Large luggage compartment opening, which opens the possibility of loading oversized cargo;
• Wide rear glass for good visibility (although for some cars this point is very controversial);
• Convertible salon, thanks to which you can transport long loads;
• Most affordable cost(in any case, lower than sedans and station wagons of the same model).

• Soundproofing is inferior to three-volume bodies (that is, sedans with their trunk separated from the passenger compartment);
• Poor visibility through the rear window when the trunk is fully loaded, which reduces the safety of maneuvering;
• Comparatively long duration of heating the cabin in winter time;
• A small volume of the luggage compartment (a hatchback, as a rule, is inferior in this parameter to other types of bodies), and if you buy a car for a large family, folding seats will not help out, since in the transformed position they do not allow transporting both cargo and passengers at the same time ...

Sedans

• High level of safety in case of impact of your car in the rear by a "caught up" car - the trunk acts as a buffer;
• The absence of the likelihood of various objects hitting the passenger compartment in a collision;
• As a rule, a large trunk volume;
• The interior does not lose heat when the boot lid is opened.

• Usually, sedans have very modest capabilities to carry bulky cargo;
• Low potential for interior transformation.

Station wagons

• Increased, in comparison with sedans and hatchbacks, weight, which is the basis for good stability of the car;
• Roomy luggage compartment (can compete with compact vans);
• The possibility of transforming the salon;
• Like hatchbacks, large trunk opening.

• There are some disadvantages of hatchbacks (long warm-up of the passenger compartment, foreign odors and the risk of objects falling from the trunk into the passenger compartment in a collision).

Minivans and compact vans

• Spacious interior, and 7-seater modifications are available for minivans;
• As a rule, the most spacious trunks (especially for minivans);
• They also have a number of advantages of hatchbacks ( high potential for cargo transportation; good visibility through the rear window).

• Disadvantages of hatchbacks (except for the capacity of the luggage compartment);
• As a rule, relatively large dimensions, which negatively affect maneuverability.

Crossovers and SUVs

• Increased cross-country ability, which makes these cars the most versatile (trips to the dacha, to the village, to a picnic with children will not cause problems);
• The spaciousness of the cabin (especially variations with the third row of seats);
• The capacity of the luggage compartment is not much inferior to minivans;
• Enhanced security.

• Typically higher fuel consumption;
• Reduced maneuverability;
• Most expensive service and repair.

The best family cars from FAVORIT MOTORS

An article on how to choose the right car for the whole family, what to focus on. Optimal models. At the end of the article - a video about the best family car up to 500 thousand rubles!

The content of the article:

The onset of spring, the long-awaited vacation, summer heat, etc. - all these are reasons for the family to have a car. Of course, these are only reasons, in fact, there are many reasons to buy a car for a family with children. However, there is a serious problem of choice, the solution of which will require knowledge of the basic criteria, nuances and subtleties. If you approach them responsibly and involve the whole family in solving the problem, the correct choice of a family car is guaranteed.

First, you need to determine the purpose of buying a car, try to answer the following questions:

• what is the budget for the purchase of a car;
• where you plan to go;
• how many passengers should be regularly accommodated in the cabin;
• what weight of cargo in the trunk will have to be transported;
• whether the carriage of small children is expected (questions regarding the safety of the car).

New or used?

If a new car for a family is too expensive, you can give priority to a used car. The main negative aspect of this option is the high probability of purchasing a "problem" car, which will bring many disappointments and require serious financial investments.

Those who are planning to buy a used car need to understand modern diagnostic stands, be able to determine the condition of the car, identify hidden engine defects, and detect traces of straightening work on the car body.

If there is no desire to take risks, representatives of the domestic auto industry are a good alternative to expensive used cars. The main advantage of this option is budget savings.

Machine capacity

If a medium or large breed dog is considered a full-fledged family member, it is better to give preference to a minivan with a large trunk. Naturally, the animal can be seated in the back, but this will require the purchase of a special protective seat cover.

In general, there are three types of "family" cars:

1. A station wagon is a good option for a family, which provides a spacious interior and roomy trunk... An important advantage of such vehicles is the comparative low price, especially when it comes to domestic cars;
2. Crossover. If a station wagon is a passenger car in a cargo-passenger version, then a crossover is a car with a really spacious interior, impressive dimensions and a spacious luggage compartment. The main advantage of the crossover is its high ground clearance. It is suitable for both city trips and travel outside of it;
3. Minivan. This is by far the best family car ever, outperforming in all respects. It is roomy, has a large (most often seven-seater) salon, a spacious trunk, and ample opportunities for transforming the interior. Of course, the price of such a car is quite high, but there are several good options here.

Security

The car is considered the most unsafe mode of transport - every parent must remember this. Therefore, it will be useful to study the results of crash tests of various brands. Also, the car must have functional airbags and seat belts.

Installation of child seats

Locking rear doors, shelves, drawers

It is also great when a separate heating zone is provided for passengers.

If a baby is traveling in the back seat, a door lock will be required to prevent the door from opening while the car is moving.

Optimal family car options

If we talk more specifically about the brands of cars that are great for the role of a family car, then we can highlight some interesting options. Listed below are the most optimal, in our opinion, models, which we recommend to take a closer look at.

Also, the driver has the opportunity to use the touch screen, through which you can set a variety of settings. Women like the spacious, bright salon. Toyota venza, distracting from the gray city routine and creating a great mood for the whole family.

Conclusion

Of course, it is not necessary to choose a car from this list - these are nothing more than recommendations, best options in our humble opinion. The main thing for the future owner is to objectively assess their financial capabilities, to study the main selection criteria. In this case, he will choose a wonderful family car for favorable price.
