Ssangyong Rodius

The seven-seater Rodius is the biggest people carrier on the market and proves that big doesn't always mean beautiful. Its distinctive looks split opinion: some buyers think it's interesting and different; others see it as simply ugly. Whatever your thoughts, one thing is obvious: it's huge. It's bigger than the largest people carriers from Renault (Grand Espace) and Chrysler (Grand Voyager) and it dwarfs most MPVs. Standard equipment is good, it's comfortable to drive, and prices start at under £20,000.
