6 Cars That Are Perfect For Family Road Trips

Does your cute little car feel a little cramped during family road trips? Check out these cars that are perfect for long road trips with your family. They are spacious, economical, sturdy and some even have decent safety ratings. What's more, some of these cars are large enough to even fit a slightly extended family as well. Check out which cars fit the bill.
Maruti Suzuki Ertiga
Families, especially, will find the features and specs of the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga to be comfortable and reliable. The comfortable seven-seating capacity is perfect for extended families. Transmission options for the Ertiga include a 4-speed torque converter automatic gearbox and a 5-speed manual gearbox.
Renault Triber
Triber has been making waves since it stepped into the Indian market. One thing worth mentioning about the Renault Triber is its 4-star safety rating in Global NCAP tests. Apart from that, this car is also apt for buyers running on a budget. The peppy engine comes with a 5-speed AMT or a 5-speed manual transmission.
Toyota Innova Crysta
Toyota Innova Crysta is gaining traction amongst Indian buyers pretty quickly. This Japanese MPV comes with seven seating capacity and offers bullet-proof reliability. If you are fond of long road trips or weekend getaways by car, Innova Crysta is worth considering. You can pick from two variants – a 2.4-litre diesel engine or a 2.0-litre petrol engine.
Mahindra Marazzo
Nothing beats Mahindra Marazzo when purchasing a car for family purposes. Like the Triber, Mahindra Marazzo also holds a 4-star Global NCAP crash rating. However, the car is available only in one gearbox option – 6-speed manual transmission.
Maruti Suzuki XL6
You can think of this car as a redesigned Maruti Suzuki Ertiga. The car offers a generous 6-seating capacity. It also packs more rugged aesthetics as compared to Ertiga. Transmission options for this car include a 4-speed torque converter automatic gearbox and a 5-speed manual gearbox. The 4-cylinder naturally-aspirated petrol engine can pump out 103.25 bhp and 138 Nm of torque.
Mahindra XUV700
Mahindra is famous for its range of reliable and rugged models. This 7-seating capacity model is one of the top-selling SUVs in its segment. The Mahindra model is packed with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems. You can also choose from petrol or diesel engines.
Undoubtedly, these six car models make for excellent and worthy investments for your family! So, what's the hold up? Head out together for car shopping!
