Hi Nicola,

There are lots of seven-seaters on the market right now, from big MPVs such as the Ford S-Max and SEAT Alhambra, to medium sized ones such as the Volkswagen Touran, Kia Carens and Citroen C4 Picasso. There are also an increasing number of seven-seat SUVs around, with the best ones being the Kia Sorento, the just-arriving Skoda Kodiaq and the Peugeot 5008, which goes on sale this summer. The ability to get people into the third row while there are people sitting in the middle row though, we can’t think of a car where that’s possible — usually the middle row seats have to tilt and fold out of the way to allow access to the third row, although is is possible for younger and fitter passengers to climb in through the boot.
