Economical seven-seaters

Would you please advise which is the most economical 7-seater in terms of fuel consumption, insurance and running cost?

Would you recommend Qashqai+2? I need one with an inbuilt sat-nav, air-con and good safety features.

To buy, maybe a Citroen Berlingo 7-seater or a VW Caddy Maxi Life. Not a Qashqai which has very little room in the back seats anyway.

Our honest used car pricing is a little bit different to all the others. You can get to our values through make or model - you don’t have to follow a prescribed route. Plus, it’s live, which means we can react to changes in the market quicker than any printed price guide.

Real MPG enables you to register the fuel economy you are actually getting against your make and model of car, its engine and type of transmission.

Every time you enter an average consumption figure against your car, the overall average automatically adjusts to reflect it.
