It is a wonderful day when the People Movers are starting to surpass the 200kW barrier! Yes Of course its
It’d be good if you included either or both the Citroen C4 Picasso and Peugeot 308 SW in your comparison as I believe that represent very refreshing alternatives to this collection of ho-hum moving lunchboxes that you have here.
Peugeot 308? Wtf?
May as well include the Ford Falcon wagon while you’re at it!
Benjie, the 308 SW is available with 7-seats
Yeah but its not a people Mover, its a wagon.
Hi Family Guy,
As stated the cars in this review were selected for representing the top selling vehicles in their category.
More specifically (at the time the vehicles were booked) they placed 1,2,3,4 and 6 out of the top six selling people movers according to VFACTS.
Ideally we would have loved to do every car in the category in such a comparison but se la vie.
If however you’d like to have a read about the Peugeot 308 SW we can help you out. Have a look at our first steer as follows: http://www.caradvice.com.au/15.....rst-steer/
Hope this helps, Matt.
so what vehicle came in at #5?
Can you include service intervals in the review pls.
More of this please guys and girls it is really useful information to us family buyers and often hard to find elsewhere. I look forward to the read. Thanks.
+1
For Family buyers the Falcon wagon should be in there.
Why? The Falcon wagon is a horrible car that’s beaten by most people movers and most SUVs. I see no need for it. Not until they update it anyway. It’s been what, ten years?
Need Mazda MPV!
hasn’t the mazda MPV been discontinued ages ago in Australia? We don’t have the new generation Mazda MPV / Mazda 8.
That Tarago in the picture isn’t the latest model. There has been a facelift since then (I think it is simply cosmetic though, not sure though).
Anyways, just thought I’d let you know.
