If you want a car-like family MPV with a polished interior, refined ride and tidy handling, the VW Touran feels like the grown-up choice for daily driving and longer trips.

The little-known Japanese: versatile and very roomy, in the tradition of the old MPVs sacrificed on the altar of stupid SUVs.
And when it comes to the competition, there’s no contest between a reliable Honda powertrain that really consumes what it promises — even less at times — and a pure all-show PSA unit that drinks far more fuel than advertised.

Fast, dynamic, very versatile. Boot just adequate but interior space excellent, even for people taller than 1.90 m. Fairly quiet and quite frugal on fuel. Sturdy and very reliable. Downsides: brakes and suspension noisy during manoeuvres, engine effective but noisy under acceleration. If driven with a bit of care, it's not hard to reach 30 km/l in town.

VW Touran

The VW Touran is a sensible family people‑carrier that mixes practical packaging with tidy, German-built refinement, making everyday life with kids and shopping feel a lot less chaotic. If you want a reliable, no-nonsense companion that drives with surprising poise and values usefulness over flash, the Touran is a very persuasive choice.
