If you're looking for a budget 7-seater car in India, the Renault Triber (₹6.1–8.74 lakh) is the most affordable and practical option. It has a 1.0L petrol engine and removable third-row seats. AC vents are available for both second and third rows, which is great in summer. Next up, the Maruti Ertiga (₹8.84–13.13 lakh) and Toyota Rumion (₹10.54–13.83 lakh) are basically the same car with different badges. Both offer a 1.5L petrol engine (103hp), sliding and reclining second-row seats, usable third-row space for adults, and roof-mounted AC vents — perfect for families. The Mahindra Bolero (₹9.80–10.91 lakh) comes with a 1.5L diesel engine (76hp) and rugged build, but has basic interiors and side-facing jump seats in the third row — only suitable for kids. The Bolero Neo (₹9.95–12.16 lakh) is a more modern version, slightly better in comfort but still not ideal for third-row adults. The Kia Carens (₹10.60–19.70 lakh) is a well-equipped, premium MPV with three engine options — petrol, turbo-petrol, and diesel. It offers top features like electric one-touch tumble for the second row, rear sunshades, tray tables, and good third-row comfort. Citroën Aircross (₹12.46–14.35 lakh) has soft seats and a unique design, but the third row is tight and best for children; the seats can be removed for more boot space. Mahindra Scorpio Classic (₹13.62–17.50 lakh) is a tough SUV with a 2.2L diesel engine but lacks third-row AC vents and only has jump seats at the back. Moving to a more premium segment, the Scorpio N (₹14–24.90 lakh) is a powerful SUV available in petrol and diesel. It has front-facing third-row seats with seatbelts, decent legroom, and modern features, but no third-row AC vents. Finally, the Mahindra XUV700 (₹14.50–25.90 lakh) is the most feature-loaded SUV on this list, with panoramic sunroof, memory seats, and dedicated third-row AC vents. However, the last row is still a bit tight for tall adults.
