Minivans, a segment still popular with families
In the 1990s and early 2000s, the market for minivans experienced notable growth, before declining in recent years in the face of strong competition from SUVs. Indeed, except BMW and Mercedes, many automobile manufacturers have abandoned production of minivans in favor of SUVs that are clearly more trendy and appreciated by the general public today.
However, when looking for a family car capable of comfortably holding 5 to 7 passengers while having significant storage space, the family minivans inevitably remain the best options on the market. It is therefore right that the minivan segment has experienced a revival in 2024, with the arrival of innovative models like the Ford S-Max.
Ces family vehicles are appreciated for their:
-
Mechanical and technological reliability;
-
Definitely spacious interior offering interesting habitability;
-
Generous storage spaces;
-
Modularity and their trunk volume;
-
Low fuel consumption.
Whether new or used, with thermal or electric engines, these break-free cars which only have a single volume now offer interesting possibilities. If certain new models act as beachheads in terms of price, on the second-hand market, the disinterest of motorists in favor of SUVs has lower the price of family minivans. Whether new or used, certain models are reliable options.
