Seven-seat SUVs offer the best of both worlds when it comes to family motoring.
With their capacious interior cabins, jacked-up ride heights and affordable running costs, these cars make a lot of sense to a lot of people.
The cars on this list all come with seven seats, are good to drive, provide impressive standard equipment and are all available through Cazoo.
So, here is our list of the best second-hand seven-seater SUVs on the market today.
BMW X7
If you want a premium seven-seat SUV, you may have forgotten about BMW’s X7.
The X7 has been around since 2019 and has built up a reputation for being a practical and versatile family wagon.
There is a choice of 3.0-litre petrol, diesel and hybrid variants, while the third row of seats are more than capable of carrying adults in the back for longer journeys. Plus, with all the seats in place, you still have an impressive 326 litres of space to play around with, making the X7 an excellent all-round package.
Second-hand examples are harder to come by, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t buy one. Look to spend around £50,000 for a 20,000-mile petrol example, or £54,000 for a hybrid model.

Hyundai Santa Fe
Hyundai makes some of the best SUVs on the market and one of its strongest contenders is the Santa Fe.
The Santa Fe is available with hybrid, plug-in hybrid and diesel powertrains, which are all frugal and cheap to run.
The plug-in hybrid model also comes equipped with a 13.8kWh battery and electric motor, which the manufacturer claims can take the car up to 36 miles on electric power.
There is also lots of standard equipment, a vast amount of interior space, and children should be more than happy sitting in the third row of chairs.
Look to spend around £26,000 for a hybrid car, or £31,000 for a low mileage plug-in hybrid variant.

Kia Sorento
Based on the Hyundai Santa Fe, the Kia Sorento is the perfect car for you and your family.
It’s available with a choice of diesel, hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains, while all models come with bucket loads of standard equipment.
The Sorento also has a well-screwed together cabin and seven-seats with the third row more than capacious enough for children.
Also, if you buy a Sorento that is less than seven years old, it will come with some of the manufacturer’s remaining seven-year or 100,000-mile warranty.
Look to spend around £25,000 for a 35,000-mile hybrid example, or £28,000 for a 30,000-mile diesel car.

Kia EV9
If you want to go electric, then Kia is here for you again with the excellent EV9.
It may be big, but the EV9 is one of the best seven-seaters on the second-hand market, on the account of its impressive interior space, fantastic driving credentials and long claimed electric range.
The EV9 comes equipped with a 99.8kWh battery with an electric motor to deliver a claimed range of up to 349 miles between trips to the plug. There is the choice of a rear-wheel drive setup and dual motor all-wheel drive version.
Prices for used examples remain strong, with an all-wheel drive two-year-old car that’s covered 24,000 miles, on the market for £47,000.

Peugeot 5008
The Peugeot 5008 is a good-looking and practical French family SUV that has a lot going for it.
It features a quirky and flamboyant interior design with Peugeot’s well-known compact steering wheel, an angled dashboard and lots of space inside for occupants.
There is a choice of efficient petrol, hybrid and diesel powertrains, while the third row of seats can accommodate children no problem at all.
Out on the road, the car’s supple suspension and soft seats make the 5008 an excellent motorway cruiser.
If you want a second-hand example, look to spend around £16,500 for a low mileage petrol model, or £23,500 for a two-year-old, 30,000-mile hybrid car.

Skoda Kodiaq
One of the best seven-seater family SUVs goes to the Skoda Kodiaq, due to its excellent all-round capability.
The Kodiaq provides a vast amount of interior space, and the car comes with lots of Skoda’s ‘Simply Clever’ storage solutions, such as a windscreen-mounted parking ticket holder, an ice scraper in the fuel filler door and umbrellas located in the front doors.
The third row of seats are also spacious enough for children, and adults should be fine for short journeys too.
Furthermore, the Kodiaq is available with a choice of punchy petrol and diesel powertrains to suit many buyers.
Used prices start from around £17,000 for a 1.5-litre petrol variant with 34,000 miles on the clock, or £20,000 for a 2.0-litre diesel example.

Volvo XC90
Another premium SUV on this list is the Volvo XC90, which has been in its second-generation since 2015.
The XC90 may be more than a decade old in its current format, but it’s still a great choice for families.
It comes with lots of standard safety tech, as well as featuring lots of plush-feeling materials inside, to make the XC90 a great companion for long journeys.
The third row of seats are impressive too, with average-sized adults more than capable of travelling longer distances in the back.
Look to spend around £28,500 for a 2019 car that’s covered 49,000 miles, or £35,000 for a 2021 example that’s got 32,000 miles on the clock.
