Vauxhall Astra 1.6 CDTi 16V EcoFLEX Design 5dr
The Vauxhall Astra is a very impressive family hatchback,with good interior space and one of the most innovative tech packages available.
The Astra gives you fantastic value, delivering second to none aerodynamics, impressive comfort levels and over 80 miles per gallon.
The design styling has a sporty edge and well devilish LED lights, which really add to the overall package.
Skoda Octavia Tourer 1.5 TSI SE Technology 5d

With an average of 53 miles per gallon, this car offers your family space and relaxation, no matter the journey.
Budget £250 to £350
Hyundai I30 1.0T GDi SE Connect 5dr DCT
A small tourer that’s suitable for a smaller family, this car is an incredible addition to this list within this budget range.
This vehicle’s comfort is magically balanced with a design inspired by smooth lines and a strong front grille. The technology within this car is impressive, and includes touchscreen options that feature widescreen navigation and easy to connect mobile solutions.
Peugeot 308 1.2 PureTech 110 Active Premium 5dr
The Peugeot 308 is a strong, well designed and surprisingly spacious family car, delivering an excellent all-round experience for the driver and passengers. It’s a worthy contender for the price on our list of best value family cars to lease.
Peugeot’s i-Cockpit gives an enhanced overall experience that sits alongside intuitive technology on the go. Match all of this with an impressive 56 mile per gallon fuel efficiency, and you have a winning car.
Skoda Superb 1.5 TSI SE 5dr
For the larger family, we bring you the Skoda Superb estate. A sporty, well equipped and proud standing car that delivers space, comfort, technology and excellent driver experience.
In fact, if you were to measure luxury just by the amount of cabin space, this would be a world-beater!
The key aspects we ask you to review when choosing a car in this article are linked to build quality, ride comfort and how it handles.
In that regard, you won’t be disappointed. The Skoda Superb cruises effortlessly. It is probably only slightly guilty of a softer ride in corners in comparison to others.
Budget £350 to £450
Audi A6 40 TDI S Line 4dr S Tronic
As cars go, the A6 ticks a huge number of boxes, from the lack of road and engine noise, to a spacious and comfortable luxury interior. It’s no wonder this Audi model made our list of best value family cars to lease.
The S Line gives you slightly more rigid suspension, which isn’t to everyone’s taste, and a standard set of 19-inch wheels. They set off the overall look of the car perfectly.
Add these to sports body trim and modern Matrix LED adaptive headlights and you have a car that looks good, drives well and is aimed at the larger family market as a very special saloon.
Volvo V60 2.0 B3P R DESIGN 5dr Auto
It’s true that Volvo has a reputation based on weight, build and their historical more traditional outlook on ‘practical design’.
But here we have a surprise for you with the V60. Its incredible lines – even for an estate – give it a very attractive look.
No more old-fashioned or traditional design for Volvo. And we would say that this has probably been the case for a number of years now. A very positive evolution.
You might worry you’ll lose something because of their new ethos? Well, you absolutely won’t.
This isn’t the biggest family car, but a mid-sized family will find it ideal for all occasions.
You keep all of the historic safety and security – that part of the DNA will never change – and find a comfortable, well presented and agile machine for your driving excitement.
Tesla Model 3 Standard Plus 4dr Auto
We’ve done it! We’ve finished on somewhat of a high – you might say. We’ve gone for the eco-friendly, Elon Musk-created Tesla Model 3 that ticks so many boxes.
The key component we would say here is that between charges you get more distance from the Tesla than almost any other electric car. It charges faster, too.
With the Tesla, you also get speed. This car is fast! Match these characteristics with impressive safety and the start of self-driving technology and you have a decent package for yourself and your family.
On longer motorway journeys the cruising comfort is good. The general handling is great, and therefore driver experience is impressive. Quick, light steering makes the Model 3 one of the best cars to drive on the road right now.
