Planning to buy the best 7-seater car in India? Here are the top 5!

If there is one category that is generating a lot of interest besides the SUVs, then it is the 7-seater cars in India. From being a category that rarely had any car, today it is buzzing with some of the hottest models on road.

Traditionally considered as a family carrier, a 7-seater is now witnessing a lot of action. Here are the top 5 cars that have brought about this change.

• Renault Triber

At a time when 7-seater cars in India were considered as luxury, the Renault Triber came into the picture and became India’s favourite family car from the moment it was launched. Its revolutionary sub-4-meter length, modular seating that could turn the car from a 7-seater to a 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6-seater in seconds, premium features, ample leg-room for even adults in the last row were just a few reasons customers loved it. However, with a price starting at just Rs. 5.50 lakh* (Ex-Showroom Delhi) and a Global NCAP rating of 4-stars for adults and 3-star for kids acted as the cherry on top. These made the Triber not only the most economical 7-seater in India but also the safest of them all too!

• Maruti Suzuki Ertiga

The next in line is the Ertiga. The Ertiga has created a strong customer base with its performance. Powered by a 1.5L engine, the Ertiga measures 4395 mm in length. With a starting price of Rs. 7.97 lakh* (Ex-Showroom Delhi), the Ertiga is perched strongly in its segment.

• Hyundai Alcazar

Said to be the 7-seater version of the popular SUV Creta, the Alcazar is the latest 7-seater car in India. With two seating arrangements, 6-seater and 7-seater, it has started making its presence felt in the premium end of the segment. Alcazar’s price starts at Rs. 16.3 lakh* (Ex-Showroom Delhi).

• Tata Safari

Earlier called the Gravitas, but then rechristened as the Safari, this 7-seater is powered by a 2L engine. It also comes loaded with premium features and a massive road presence. The Safari starts at Rs. 14.99 lakh* (Ex-Showroom Delhi) and is one of the latest to be launched on the Indian roads.

• Toyota Innova

If there is one car that has defined the category for a long time, then it has to be the Innova. Powered by a 2.4L engine, the Innova still has a huge fan following even after the launch of so many competitors. With a price tag starting at Rs. 16.77 lakh* (Ex-Showroom Delhi), the Innova is still considered as one of the best known 7-seater cars in India.

7-seater cars in India are not just family carriers; they also come equipped with top-end features, provide superior comfort, and offer excellent safety to the occupants. These cars are also ideal for long-distance travel or when you have loads of luggage. Don't be surprised if this category emerges as the next battleground after SUVs!

The Renault Kwid accessories they chose did the job perfectly well. By the time they left the place in their new Renault Kwid, there was a broad smile on the duo’s faces.
