It was the Honda HRV, and it couldn’t hold a candle to the Multipla.
The Multipla had 6 full size seats that could all comfortably hold adults, plus the backseats where individually removable. I loaded a couch sideways in that car. Absolutely brilliant.
The middle seats on the HRV were significantly smaller, no comparison in terms of usefulness and versatility.
It was the Honda FRV and I still have one. I also had a Multipla. Both are good, in their own quirky ways. Both have slightly narrower seats than a normal car; the honda slightly narrower, but more supportive, have heating and are leather. Both are very car-like to drive, but the Honda has way better engines and better reliability. That said, getting parts for the FRV is a pain, because there weren’t many made and the wider body means that a surprising number aren’t shared with other Honda models if the same era.
Given a choice, as a practical family car, I’d take the FRV over the multipla. I do have a soft spot for the multiplugly though.
