Van-based MPV

Need to load up several people and all of their luggage for a big road trip? A van-based MPV could be the answer to your prayers – because their boxy statures maximise interior space.

Although these vehicles are heavily based on commercial vehicles, most will use higher quality materials than their working siblings, and creature comforts designed to keep everyone comfy.

Volkswagen Grand California

from £82,900
Cleverly designed motorhome makes camping trips a piece of cake, and is now even better following a mid-cycle update

Volkswagen Multivan

from £44,227
MPV is better to drive and more sophisticated than rivals, and it has a varied engine range

Vauxhall Combo Life Electric

from £32,340
Electric MPV is practical and very well-equipped but costs more than similar alternatives

Peugeot e-Rifter

from £32,500
Electric van-based MPV is refined, very practical and well-equipped

Volkswagen Caddy California

from £36,013
A small but pretty mighty camper van, with a competitive starting price, five usable seats and reasonable performance

Peugeot Rifter

from £32,500
It may not have the class of more mainstream MPVs, but the Peugeot Rifter offers unmatched space and practicality, and is surprisingly good to drive

Ford Tourneo Custom

from £24,590
Lots and lots of room, with useful seating flexibility and a modern-feeling dashboard, but lackluster engines and dynamics mean you never forget it’s a van

Ford Tourneo Connect

from £30,795
Very cheap to buy and very roomy inside, but in pretty much every other respect rival MPVs do a better job

Volkswagen Caddy MPV

from £25,174
MPV is decent to drive with an excellent safety rating but there are better options for the price

Citroën Spacetourer

from £21,400
Massively spacious but interior quality and handling are likely to disappoint someone used to a regular MPV

New Ford Tourneo Courier

from £24,590
The Tourneo Courier does well to fight the MPV corner in a world of glamorous SUVs

Vauxhall Vivaro Life

from £27,200
Vauxhall Vivaro Life

Vauxhall Vivaro Life Electric

from £27,200
Huge electric people carrier that falls down on range and ride.

Toyota Proace Verso

from £31,995
Incredibly versatile, but don’t expect the Toyota Proace Verso to drive as well as smaller MPVs

Mercedes EQV

from £92,485
The EQV is great for ferrying around VIPs but there are better options for private buyers

New Mercedes V-Class

from £69,950
The Mercedes V-Class offers decent luxury and space, but it’s too expensive and not that great to drive so we’d stick with more regular MPVs.

Volkswagen Caravelle

from £53,029
Spacious for seven but it’s pricey and rivals are more comfortable

Peugeot Traveller

Very spacious but handling and interior quality are likely to disappoint those used to a regular MPV

Peugeot e-Traveller

Electric van-based MPV can carry plenty of people but has a limited range and is more expensive than direct rivals.

Renault Trafic Passenger

Good at the ‘people versus luggage’ conundrum, but well off the pace in most other ways

Mercedes VLE

The Mercedes VLE is an electric people mover with a 435-mile range

Citroen e-Spacetourer

A spacious and versatile electric MPV, but its range is rather short.
