people carrier

Multi-passenger automobile

A people carrier is a large vehicle designed to transport multiple passengers, typically a minivan or multipurpose vehicle with three rows of seats.

The term is primarily British; Americans usually say minivan or passenger van.

We rented a people carrier for the family trip.
