What are the seven-seater cars available?
2 Answers
The following are seven-seater cars: Volkswagen Teramont: The exterior still adopts Volkswagen's family "standard face", giving an overall impression of ruggedness and grandeur, full of strength, but its actual dimensions are even larger than the Touareg, measuring 5039x1989x1773mm in length, width, and height, with a wheelbase of 2980mm. The length exceeds 5 meters, the width is close to 2 meters, and the height is almost the limit for underground garage entrances and exits. Pros: Spacious interior, precise steering. Cons: Lack of user-friendly configurations, not cost-effective, insufficient power in the 2.0T version, poor suspension damping effect, strong odor in new cars. 2. Toyota Highlander: The Highlander's 2.0T engine delivers a maximum output of 220ps and a maximum torque of 350Nm. The over 2-ton body feels sluggish at start, but power improves after reaching 1700rpm, paired with Aisin's 6AT transmission. The body dimensions are 4890x1925x1720mm, with a wheelbase of 2790mm. Pros: Excellent quality of the three major components, extremely high durability, completely flat rear seats when folded, comfortable chassis suspension. Cons: Thin seats make long-distance driving tiring, sluggish acceleration from start, high fuel consumption of 12L, engine start-stop cannot be permanently disabled.
Our family just bought a seven-seater car last year, mainly because the kids have grown up, and we often take the whole family out for trips, so space was simply not enough. I compared SUVs like the Toyota Highlander, Honda Pilot, and Kia Sorento—they are all quite family-friendly, with third-row seating and enough trunk space for luggage, making long trips comfortable. Safety-wise, they’re also reliable; for example, Toyota models come with automatic emergency braking, which adds peace of mind while driving. If the budget allows, you could also consider MPVs like the Honda Odyssey—its rear seats can be easily folded flat, making it no problem to load strollers or camping gear. Overall, a seven-seater solves the issue of transporting multiple people daily, but fuel consumption and maintenance costs should be considered. I recommend test-driving a few models to get a feel for them.
