people-carriers
Multi-passenger automobiles
People-carriers are vehicles designed to transport multiple passengers, typically minivans or MPVs (multi-purpose vehicles) with seating for six to eight people.
The term is primarily British; Americans usually say minivan.
We hired a people-carrier for the family reunion.
The name emphasizes function over style—these are practical vehicles for shuttling groups.
