5 seat Cars/SUV that can fit 3 kids car seats in the back!

Would have thought most of the Model Y, ID4 size would fit them. Might need seat belt extenders to make it a little easier for everyday use.

I regularly carry 3 in the back to/from sports etc.. in a Model Y.

New or second hand?

I’d be looking at the Citroen C5 or Peugeot 5008

I think it’s the same with the C5…if you could find last year’s version of either with the 3 individual seats it could work

Surely it’s costing almost nothing to run on such a short commute? We have a superb combi so same engine and we both work from home so ours isn’t even doing 14km a day most days and a tank of diesel lasts a long time (provided we have no long weekend trip). That all being said and with just 2 kids (and staying at that) we find ourselves really needing a 7 seater with play dates , cousins visiting, other family members etc often not being able to travel with us and bringing a second car (and an extra adult to drive it). We were going to go for a new Kodaiq this year as they are a very nice car but with a large solar array et we are going to wait for the new Skoda Peaq 7 seat EV instead now.

To answer you actual question however 😀, I believe the Enyaq can fit 3 seats but what size combinations I’m not so sure.

It doesn't add up. should be capable of under 5l/100km but lest just say 6 at worst to account for some stop start that would be around 250km for 30 euro at 2 euro per litre for simplicity which is nearly a month if we only consider the commute.

OP if you really want to change did you check the Enyaq it is possible to fit some combination of 3 seats across it from what I've read but it probably depends on your exact seats.

As for most cars not fitting 3 seats I suppose you are going to be making them wider than needed when 7 seaters are catering for this market and what most people will opt for regardless.

I've seen pictures of old Nissan leafs with 3car seats in them, you'd pick one up for a couple of grand and would cover your daily commute no problem

Worth having a look at the Kia PV5 passenger version? I haven't seen in the back - saw the van version at Nevo last year, but it seems like the sort of vehicle that would have decent width across the 3 rear seats, and should also have a big enough boot to carry all the stuff that goes with 3 child seat age children.

High back boosters aren't isofix anyway so this shouldn't be a major need as they can go in the front with no isofix.

Or maybe they'll buy a car for less than they sold the Skoda for AND save on fuel?
