Definitely a family car!

But when the family isn't riding along, it can be something else …

Love it so far!

We bought it specifically because we needed a family car. We couldn't be happier.

I literally read the title and said the same thing "Family Car", WTF!? In my head I equate "Family Car" to Minivan.

I use it as a commuter to work as well as all of our weekend driving. No kids, no dog, 1 wife. I guess more than one person could be considered a "family". I'll get over it, I just get triggered by having my car be referred to as a "Family Car". Makes me puke a little bit just thinking about it ?.

Everything has been bigger in America … These days, you should look to Western Europe, the US have been lagging behind quite a while now!

This would have been a much bigger deal if Jeremy Clarkson was still around

You guys crack me up! ?

Same reaction, it is a family car for our european standards (2 kids 14 and 10yo, the oldest is 1m85 tall and sits in the backseats without problem) and definitely a very good one! Also Paak works just fine ?
I love this car, it's a lot of fun to drive

Hell, my college age son is 6' 5" (1.96M) and sits in the back seat with his mom (5' 6"/1.68M) only needing to move her seat up a little, but still having plenty of room in the front seat. The car can definitely operate as a "family" vehicle.

It's obviously a "Family Car" because it's a station wagon!

Hey, it's only a station wagon if the door swings to the side and the rear seats either face inwards or backwards.

Uh-oh. Who is going to tell Tim the Tool Man that his '55 Nomad is not really a station wagon?

I must be old. I think of family cars as being GM B-bodies or larger. Not much today fits the bill. ??

No dog??? Surely you jest! Dog is ALWAYS in my car when I'm driving. Because... Well... ??

It's my family car. Two tall adults and 2 little kids. Perfect for us.

"Family car"?!

Absolutely, I sold the mini-van for ours, kids love it.

same! Where were all these people when Ford introduced it as an SUV?

Absolutely. We had a Honda Odyssey for the past 5 years, great vans. But now we don't need all the extra stuff that comes with babies like strollers, etc. It was between MME and Model Y and you can guess which one won.
