People Carrier Hire

When looking for a vehicle with extra space for added comfort, a people carrier is the perfect solution. Even if you do not need all the extra seats, a people carrier category provides extra comfort, space and luxury. We can provide access to a range of premium minivans that fall within the people carrier category.

The people carrier is ever popular with larger families and tour groups. The seating configuration is generally 3 rows of 2 seats. In the past, there were larger cars with bench seats that were big enough to accommodate 3 passengers, but they are no longer being made.

Advantages of Hiring a People Carrier

This people carrier category can range from compact 7 seaters to larger 9 seater minivans and 12 seater minivans, but the term people carrier is more often associated with the 7 seater category

MPV Rentals work hard to ensure that we provide customers with all of the best people carrier hire deals with no unexpected charges.

Car Rental People Carrier Seater FAQs

Can I drive a six seater with standard licence?

Yes, all you need is a valid, regular driving licence to drive a 6-seater. Some suppliers will impose minium age restrictions, please refer to the individual supplier terms for more details.

Where Can I View The Supplier's Complete Rental Conditions?

On the search results page, after entering your booking dates, a link will be displayed to that rental supplier's rental conditions. So please enter your travel dates into the booking widget to learn more

Can I request a roof rack for my 6-seater rental?

Whilst a popular request, most suppliers are not able to provide roof racks or tow-bars.

How big is the luggage space in your 6-seater car rental options?

The boot space will vary depending on make and model of vehicle. Some vehicles are large SUVS with small folding seats in the boot area. This layout with all seats sued will significantly reduces the luggage space. If you're travelling with luggage, we recommend renting a full size 7-seater or 9 seater.

What does it mean  5+2 on a rental quote mean?

This is telling you that the van can seat 7, but you must use 2 rear folding seats for the 7 seater capacity. If you choose a 5+2 take note your luggage space will become very limited. Soft luggage advised.

What is the upper age limit?

Again this will vary across suppliers, with EASIRENT it is 74, with SIXT no maximum age and no senior driving fee will apply

What Is The Fuel Policy with People Carriers?

We will only offer car rental suppliers that have a fair fuel policy. This means return the car with the same amount of fuel and avoid any additional charges 

What if I need to cancel my booking?

We all know that things can change, and we believe that you should not be penalised if you give some notice.  All that are suppliers ask is to give then 24 hours notice, and you will receive a full refund. Under 24 hours, we suggest checking your insurance policy for emergency cover  

How to find the cheapest Car Rental

Book in low Season

Most car rental companies have high and low seasons, and they adjust their rental car prices accordingly. During the summer months and school holiday, expect to pay more for if you are planning renting out during the high seasons.

Additional driver fees

If you will be adding extra drivers to share the driving, look for suppliers that offer additional drivers for free. We highlight these suppliers in the results page. Also, make sure the additional driver does not forget to bring his//her normal driving licence to be added to the agreements.

Mileage

If you will be touring, try and avoid limited mileage limits and opt for car hire with unlimited kilometres 

Choose Low or Zero Deposit

The local security deposit is an amount that is blocked on the credit card of the lead driver at the start of a people carrier rental. It normally covers the car excess amount and the deposit for the fuel in the tank. The excess is the amount that you would be liable for damage to the rental vehicle that you are held responsible for.

The issue that some people find is that if the excess is a large amount it can limit their spending, for others they would prefer not to have a heft deposit blocked on their credit card. With a demand for no deposit car hire on the rise more suppliers are now offering this option, for example Arnold Clark offers no deposit car hire in Glasgow and its other UK locations. In Europe no deposit car rental Alicante Airport is available with a good range of car rental companies and growing!
