Large trunk, comfortable lounge and high ground clearance: the top 5 available family cars

What should be a family car? Maybe big and spacious? Or practical and comfortable? The answer to these questions is quite simple.

3. Skoda Rapid
Skoda cars have always been famous for their practicality and comfort. And if the Octavia in the current hierarchy of the brand is already a rather expensive car, then the Rapid at a price of 646,000 rubles is a really interesting offer.

5. KIA Rio
Another “budget”. KIA Rio and its brother in the concern Hyundai Solaris which year have become one of the best-selling cars on the market. And this suggests that Koreans have succeeded in their desire to make a car with an excellent price-performance ratio. Earlier Novate.ru already wrote about the best cars in terms of price-quality. So, a car with a price of 724,900 rubles has a bright design, good packaging and behaves well on the road. Either the 1.4 liter engine on 100 hp, or the 1.6 liter unit on 123 “horses” helps him in this.
