What is an estate?

An estate car is a practical 5-door or in the case of the Mini Clubman 6-door vehicle, typically a rear boot lid is paired with the rear window and open vertically like a hatchback or SUV. In addition to the rear row of seats, there is a third window that indicates the vehicle is an estate. A larger loading bay and opening make an estate the ideal options for those who require more room than the typical small family car, the estate is also more aerodynamic and therefore better with fuel economy and driving efficiency that large crossovers or SUVs. Estate vehicles are also called sports tourers, avants and shooting brake a full list of body type meanings can be found here.

Benefits of an estate

Estate vehicles are typically larger than hatchbacks and saloons, making transporting long or oversized items easier. The lower ride height when compared to crossovers and SUVs make loading and unloading the rear easier than taller vehicles. A range of lengths and luxury vehicles are available in the UK from the majority of manufacturers including Volvo, Mercedes, Ford and Volkswagen.
