The days of squashed passengers in the back seat are over, thanks to the advent of larger, 7-seater crossovers and SUVs. These bigger options, usually with two rows of seats in the back rather than just one, make ideal family cars and represent great value for money. If you want to hire a 7-seater SUV in the UAE, what are your options, and why are they a smart choice?

The 7-seater family car – perfect for growing kids

Because 7-seater SUVs are so spacious, they give you plenty of room for growing kids. The larger cabin also allows you to be able to fix child seats in the back two rows, a legal requirement for young children in the UAE. Manufacturers who have developed the best 7-seater SUVs have also recognised which audience they appeal to, so they’ve paid additional attention to key elements they know will appeal to families, such as safety features and plenty of luggage space.

The result is a range of 7-seater SUVs from manufacturers such as Honda and Toyota that are hugely popular with bigger families. They offer peace of mind as well as a comfortable ride, but thanks to some substantial-sized engines also have plenty of power and performance too.
