Best People Mover by Price, Size & Category in Aus

People movers are ideal for carrying more passengers than you can fit in a sedan or wagon. They tend to have at least seven seats, and the third row generally has more room than a large SUV. Most modern people movers are based on a regular passenger car chassis, which makes for a more comfortable and dynamic driving experience than the early people movers that were based on commercial vans.

Lexus LM500h Ultra Luxury 2024 review: snapshot
7.9/10
The Lexus LM is a rival for premium people movers like the Mercedes-Benz EQV, and there’s a good chance many owners will be driven around in this vehicle rather than getting behind the wheel themselves. Although if they do, they’ll be rewarded with a plush, cosseting drive experience.Sitting above the LM350h is the flagship LM500h which is about $220,000. Rather than being a seven-seater like its sibling, the 500h is strictly a four-seater.Behind the front compartment are two big captain’s chairs that recline flat if required. Standard gear includes a digital rearview mirror, and a 14.0-inch touchscreen, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, a head up display, seven USB ports, a smartphone charger and a rear 14.0-inch multimedia display.The 500h adds niceties like a separation partition with elevating and dimmable glass, that doubles as a 48.0-inch widescreen display to watch films and TV, or take conference calls with. The 500h combines a 2.4-litre turbocharged petrol engine and a hybrid setup, making for power and torque of 202kW and 460Nm respectively. It has all-wheel drive and is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission.The extensive safety suite includes intersection assist, and a pre-collision system with vehicle, pedestrian, bicyclist and daytime motorcyclist detection, and a lot more.
Lexus LM350h Sports Luxury 2024 review: snapshot
7.9/10
The Lexus LM is a people mover designed with high-end buyers in mind. A lot of people will be driven around in this vehicle rather than getting behind the wheel.There are LM two model grades available, and the range opens with the LM350h from a tick over $160,000. That’s for the front-wheel drive version, while the all-wheel drive is $5000 dearer.The three-row, seven-seat 350h has two captains chairs in the second row and three in the third row. The luxury vibe of the LM is most evident in that second row, with the captain’s chairs offering six-way power adjustability, heading and ventilation, an ottoman, a pull-out table, a massage function, hands-free controller and more.Tech wise there is a digital rearview mirror, and a 14.0-inch touchscreen, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, a head up display, seven USB ports, a smartphone charger and a rear 14.0-inch multimedia display.The LM350h comes with a 2.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine and a parallel hybrid system, offering up a total system output of 140kW and 239Nm. It is paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT).The extensive safety suite includes intersection assist, and a pre-collision system with vehicle, pedestrian, bicyclist and daytime motorcyclist detection, and a lot more.
Lexus LM 2024 review
7.9/10
Most people that are wealthy enough to be ferried around in a car or limo choose a long luxurious sedan like a Mercedes-Benz S-Class, BMW 7 Series or a Lexus LS. Of course, there are now also SUVs that are used for the same purpose.But what about a plush people mover? There are very few of these available in Australia and they don’t sell in huge numbers. But Lexus believes there is a market for such a model and it has just launched the big and bold LM. The hybrid-only range is a unique proposition and the LM should hold appeal for limo and tourism operators, and larger cashed-up families. This initial launch drive was a slightly different format to usual. Given the intended use of the lounge-like model, Lexus arranged for us to be collected in the LM by a chauffeur and ferried from Melbourne to the Mornington Peninsula. From there we got behind the wheel for a brief drive, but many of my impressions will focus on the passenger cabin experience.Note too that the LM500h does not land until early 2024, so we only sampled the LM350h AWD.So jump aboard and let’s see if this Lexus can do everything the LS can do - and maybe even a little bit more.
