What is an MPV (Multi-Purpose Vehicle)?
We will talk about an unusual and very useful segment that has not been popular in our country for many years, but with the increasing demand in recent years, a new model has started to appear on the roads every day: MPV.
MPV, which stands for Multi-Purpose Vehicle, is more commonly referred to as a 7-seater vehicle in Turkey. Although the term 7-seater evokes the idea of crowded families, MPVs are preferred not only by crowded families but also by consumers with many different expectations thanks to their adaptable interior structures that offer different usage possibilities. One of the most advantageous aspects of MPVs is long journeys. The MPV class, which has a much larger interior volume compared to sedans and hatchbacks and is one of the vehicles that will make your life easier, especially on a long vacation, with its luggage capacity, has slowly started to gain an important place in our lives.
MPV in every way
The most distinctive feature of MPV vehicles, which are similar to SUV (Sport Utility Vehicle) models, is the number of seats that can be increased up to 7. This is the reason why these vehicles are called multi purpose: They allow both urban and long-distance use, and they can be used both as passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. MPVs stand out as ideal vehicles for families, large groups of people who enjoy long road trips and all users who need high luggage volume.
The first examples of MPVs, which are very popular especially in the European market, were the Renault Scenic and Opel Zafira models that hit the market years ago. Today, these vehicles are followed by actors such as Ford, Citroen, Toyota and Peugeot.
