Meet the cars that put the ‘fun’ into functional in the latest video episode from Chasing Cars and Mamamia
Sports cars aren’t for everyone. Or they may have been in our younger years before greater practical needs took priority – especially for parents.
Coupes or ‘roadster’ convertibles with just two doors, limited rear-seat space (if any seats at all), and tiny boots are just not going to cut it if you’ve got kids, or you enjoy going away for weekends with friends.
Step forward, then, the sporty yet sensible vehicles that promise to blend driving fun with functionality and practicality.
Options are not vast, but they are varied – with body styles ranging from hatchbacks to wagons and, of course, SUVs.
Chasing Cars – Powered by Budget Direct – and Mamamia have teamed up to explore the world of ‘Sporty Yet Sensible’ cars in the latest episode of their collaborative video series, which you can view below!
WATCH THE VIDEO!
Chasing Cars presenter Shana Zlotin and Mamamia’s Annaliese Todd take to the road in the Mini Countryman, a perfect example of a sporty compact SUV that combines the British brand’s signature ‘go-kart’ handling with a relatively roomy interior and a boot compartment that will suit a girls’ weekend away or everyday family duties.
As a bonus, it just happens to have one of the coolest-looking cabins around!
What makes a car sporty? And why might you want a sporty vehicle? Shana answers all of Annaliese’s key questions, as well as offering a guide to other models that can bring joy to everyday motoring without requiring major compromises.
They include the Skoda Octavia RS wagon and Skoda Kodiaq RS large SUV, the Cupra Formentor VZx performance compact SUV, and the famous Volkswagen Golf GTI hot-hatch.
Mamamia is Australia’s largest women’s media brand with a purpose to make the world a better place for women and girls.
