Does the larger 7 seater WagonR make economic sense compared to larger MPVs?
The 7 seater WagonR has stirred up the question of its economic viability as compared to more traditional MPVs. From one angle, the WagonR has a lower initial price to purchase and may very well be more fuel efficient because it is smaller on the outside and lighter on the inside. As a result, it may be an appealing option for budget minded families or for those that only really need the extra seating from time to time. But critics say that the compromises in space and comfort may not be worth the savings, especially in comparison with slightly larger vehicles such as the Ertiga. The question of long term value also crops up – is the 7 seater WagonR going to retain its resale value as well as established MPVs? Also, they say that for a small car that you are loading to capacity all the time, the running costs, such as maintenance and possible repairs, may be higher. Also part of the economic debate are the insurance costs, road tax and parking fees that will differ between the WagonR and larger MPVs.
It's been a game changer for my family. The WagonR, a 7 seater, gives us that flexibility when we need it, we couldn’t afford an Ertiga. Also, it's a lot more fuel efficient than other larger MPVs. It’s all about being smart about compromises.
