mpvRenting a people carrier or MPV is easy and is a great way of moving a lot of people with their luggage onward to their final destination. The overwhelming factors in your choice of people carrier hire will be the number of people in your group and the amount of luggage you need to transport. Fuel prices are horrendous just about everywhere now, so picking a diesel vehicle may be a wise move although this may mean a compromise on performance.

SEAT Alhambra – Affordable 7 Seater People Carrier.

Without doubt the SEAT Alhambra is a great choice for families looking for a reliable MPV hire. Above-average performance and excellent fuel economy make the Alhambra the first choice of many when hiring an MPV. There’s no doubt that for a minivan, the level of comfort is amazing. It has an excellent safety record it’s easy to drive and it’s extremely well-equipped. Looking for negatives, it’s such a big MPV, parking can be a problem. The back seats can be a bit tricky to fold away but there aren’t many faults to point out on the Alhambra. However, a few small niggles are more than compensated by the money you’ll save on hiring this car.

Ford Galaxy.

Although it’s been over a long time now, the Ford Galaxy people carrier is still considered king of the hill by many people. There’s a feeling of roominess inside the cabin, similar to a minivan and yet the Ford Galaxy drives like a normal car. Versatility is the key to this amazing minivan, with the seat formation easily changeable with a nifty mechanism. It looks cumbersome from the outside but it’s actually amazingly good to drive.

The steering is fantastic and cornering is superb. Even the basic models come with air conditioning and electric windows, while the top-end models are fitted in full leather. Fuel economy is good, with some petrol models achieving 30mpg, while you can achieve 45mpg with a couple of the diesel versions.

The Ford Galaxy has been around since 2006 and initial reliability problems have been resolved. A roof box may be advisable if you are travelling with seven adults, as the boot space though good, is better in rival MPVs. Overall, the Ford Galaxy is a really decent people carrier and should be near the top of anyone’s list when looking to hire an MPV.

VW Touran.

Although it’s been around for a long time, the VW Touran is still right up there as one of the best 7 seater MPVs of all time. Inside, the Volkswagen Touran is roomy and quiet, there is terrific versatility in the seating arrangement, and plenty of space for luggage. Please bear in mind that although the Touran is generally a very comfortable and quiet people carrier to drive, if you have opted for the diesel version you can expect to hear greater engine noise.

Great handling and comfortable seating go hand-in-hand with a strong record for safety in the VW Touran. There are 7 seats as standard although that leaves little in the way of luggage space, around 121 L, but you can arrange the seats in a different format to increase baggage room.
