MPV | All | CAR Magazine Online

Ford hopes a less-is-more approach will lure punters to its new B-max MPV, unique in the supermini segment for having a big hole in the central cockpit instead of a structural pillar. The result is a flexible people mover that's a doddle to load with kids or cargo, Ford claims, thanks to its pillarless opening and sliding rear door. The ...

Ford has today opened up its new B-Max, literally. The new B-Max is almost a wanton show-off next to the Fusion that it replaces. It's a mini-MPV with sliding rear doors, a bit like those on the ill-fated Peugeot 1007. They're more normally found on full-size or compact MPVs, such as Ford's own C-Max range. So what's so clever about the Ford B-Max's ...

Fiat will show its new addition to the 500 range at the 2012 Geneva motor show: the new 500L mini MPV. It's designed to squeeze MPV practicality into the footprint of a B-segment city car – with a sprinkling of SUV style raised ride height. Turin says the 'L' badge stands for large. So, you guessed it, this is a ...

This is the Dacia Lodgy, a new MPV from the Renault’s Romanian budget brand. It will be offered in both five- and seven-seat guise, and at 4.5 metres in length it’s nearly as long as Renault’s own Grand Scenic. Haven’t we seen the Dacia Lodgy before? We have, but only as a 350bhp ice racer drive by Alain Prost; this ...

Strip away the ice-racing livery – this is being presented as Alain Prost's ice slider for the 2011-12 Trophee Andros – and this is the new Dacia Lodgy, as revealed in our artist's impression. That unusual name signifies the budget brand's new small MPV, which could come to the UK. We won't see the new Lodgy in roadgoing spec until ...

Mercedes is giving its new small car range a much more modern cabin.

Vauxhall Zafira Tourer (2011) first official pictures

Ben Pulman, 18 May 2011 00:01

It’s not the new Vauxhall Zafira, it’s the new Vauxhall Zafira Tourer. Why the new name? Because the current Zafira will continue to be sold alongside the new Zafira Tourer, which lands in UK showrooms in early 2012. Vauxhall claims its new MPV sits above the current car and will ‘raise the bar for design, luxury, flexibility and innovation in the MPV sector’. ...
