To help you navigate this important decision, here are some KEY FACTORS to consider when choosing your next family car:

Safety First

Safety is paramount when it comes to choosing a family car. Look for cars with a high safety rating from reputable organizations like the European New Car Assessment Programme (Euro NCAP). Consider features like:

• Multiple airbags: to protect all passengers in the event of a collision.
• Electronic stability control: to help prevent skidding and loss of control.
• Anti-lock brakes: to help you maintain steering control during emergency braking.
• Lane departure warning: to alert you if you start to drift out of your lane.
• ISOFIX points: for easy and secure installation of child car seats.

Space + Comfort

A family car needs to be spacious enough to accommodate everyone and their belongings comfortably. Consider:

• Number of seats: do you need a 5-seater or a 7-seater?
• Size of your passengers: will everyone have enough legroom and headroom?
• Cargo space: is the boot big enough for a pram, shopping, and luggage?
• Adjustable seats: can you easily adjust the seats to accommodate growing children or car seats?
• Comfort features: look for features like climate control, comfortable seats, and a quiet cabin.

Fuel Efficiency

Fuel efficiency is an important consideration for any car owner, but it's especially important for families who are often on the go.

• Look for cars with good fuel economy ratings: this will save you money on fuel costs in the long run.
• Consider hybrid or electric options: these cars offer even greater fuel efficiency and can help reduce your carbon footprint.

Tech + Convenience

Modern cars come with a variety of technology and convenience features that can make driving easier and more enjoyable, especially with young children in tow. Consider features like:

• Touchscreen infotainment system: for easy access to music, navigation, and other features.
• Bluetooth connectivity: for hands-free calling and music streaming.
• Rearview camera: for easier and safer reversing, especially with limited visibility.
• Parking sensors: to help you avoid bumps and scrapes when parking in tight spaces.

Budget

Of course, budget is always a major consideration when choosing a car.

• Set a realistic budget and stick to it.
• Consider the purchase price: as well as ongoing costs like fuel, insurance, and maintenance.
