Share
Travelling with family means special moments, but it also requires careful planning — especially when it comes to getting around during the holidays. Knowing you can rely on the best family cars ensures peace of mind for everyone on board.
Whether you're going on a weekend getaway with the kids or planning a longer break, having the right vehicle makes all the difference. That’s why we’re here to help you choose the ideal family car for your trip, highlighting the key features to consider.
Looking for the best family car? here's what to consider
To identify the best family cars, we considered several criteria, including space, comfort, safety, and efficiency. Fortunately, the market offers a wide range of models that meet all these needs.
At Guerin, we have an extensive fleet of rented cars, meaning we can provide a vehicle to suit every need and type of journey. When choosing your family car, keep these features in mind:
Interior Space.
Space is essential for families — not just for passengers, but also for backpacks, toys, pushchairs, and more. The best family cars offer spacious cabins, good legroom, and wide seating arrangements that accommodate everyone comfortably.
Comfort.
Long journeys demand comfort. Ergonomic seats, efficient air conditioning, entertainment systems and smooth suspension are key elements to ensure a pleasant trip for all passengers.
Safety.
Safety is always a top priority. Look for vehicles with high Euro NCAP ratings. Systems such as automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, parking sensors and multiple airbags are must-haves in the best family cars.


Boot Space.
A generous boot is a must-have. Whether it’s luggage for a trip or the weekly shop, your car’s boot should be large enough to suit your family’s lifestyle.
Fuel Efficiency.
With fuel prices constantly fluctuating, choosing an efficient car is a wise move. The best family cars include hybrid and electric options, as well as economical engines designed to suit family budgets.
Best Family Cars: Which One is Right for You?
Finding the best family car can seem challenging, especially with so many options on the market. From spacious and safe models to more economical and tech-savvy vehicles, there’s a perfect car for every type of family — big or small, adventurous or urban. Explore some of our top suggestions below.
SUV.
SUVs are among the most popular choices for families. They offer a high driving position, great visibility, and generous interior space — ideal for those looking for versatility and comfort. At Guerin, you’ll find several models available.
Estate Cars (Station Wagons).
Estate cars combine the comfort of a sedan with the loading capacity of an SUV. They’re perfect for families who want a more dynamic driving experience without sacrificing space.
