Do I have to go for a people carrier if I have three child seats?

I'm looking for a car that will fit three child seats across the back seat. Is there one or is a people carrier the only option?

Hi Colin,

I'm afraid a people carrier is pretty much your only option. The Renault Scenic, Toyota Verso or Citroen C4 Picasso can all take three abreast, as can the Peuegot 5008. If you want a conventional car that can carry three kids, your only choice is probably a Mercedes-Benz E-Class Estate with the optional pair of rear-facing seats in the boot.
