Reliable 7-seater models for families

Business World Philippines

April 11, 2025

IN A VERY family-oriented country like the Philippines, having a car that fits the whole household, the extended family, plus maybe a few extra bags and groceries, is slowly becoming a necessity.

Reliable 7-seater models for families

This is the reason why seven-seater sport utility vehicles (SUV) remain a popular choice for Filipino families. Be it a school pickup, a grocery run, a spontaneous road trip to the province, or a casual drive around the city with the whole family, having a spacious and reliable vehicle makes all the difference.

This year, the industry’s finest engineers have realized the Philippines’ affinity for 7-seaters as they offer new and updated models that are smarter, more fuel-efficient, and more stylish than previous releases. With new technology, modern safety features, and a wide range of prices to suit every budget, 2025’s 7-seater lineup is built to meet the everyday needs of the modern Filipino family.

TOYOTA FORTUNER

Toyota remains a strong player in this category with the ultra-reliable Fortuner, a household name that has maintained its popularity over the years. Priced between P1.8 million and P2.7 million, the 2025 Fortuner offers both 2.4L and 2.8L diesel engine options.

The Fortuner continues to be a top pick for households seeking power, safety, and a touch of muscle as the model maintains its commanding presence on the road and boosts its reputation for durability. The latest variant, especially the GR-S model, boasts updated safety features, such as multiple air bags, hill-start assist, and reverse cameras, along with a more aggressive design and sportier suspension system. The 7-seater is well-suited for both city driving in Metro Manila and rugged adventures in the provinces.
