The best cars for hauling presents this Christmas
Every year though, there seem to be more and more presents to buy — and somehow, you’ve got to get them to your recipient. Playing Father Christmas this year? These are the cars you should be looking towards for your sleigh…
Audi RS6
Fast and practical are two attributes every good sleigh needs — and nothing brings these two qualities together better than the Audi RS6.
With a twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 under the bonnet, it’s got the go for quick deliveries and can make plenty of them too thanks to a 565-litre boot. Oh, and you can get it in red for the full Father Christmas effect.

Peugeot 508 SW
There are few cars quite as good at load-lugging in absolute comfort as the Peugeot 508 SW. It’s spacious, comes with a range of engines and packs a very generous boot size.
As standard the all-new 508 SW is the premium estate car with uncompromising design, the sporting performance of a coupé and the comfort of a tourer.

Honda e
Is Santa looking for an upgrade? Why not swap a sleigh for a car of the future... the all electric Honda e.
You'll soon be on your way with the seamlessly smooth power of the Honda e and better still you'll be delivering presents whilst driving a car that’s clean and efficient, with zero emissions.

Mercedes S Class
In contrast, there’s the luxurious Mercedes S-Class. Though it’s arguably one of the best cars to be driven in, the S-Class is also great for whoever is behind the wheel too. It’s also got a decent sized boot, and it’s nearly the length of Santa’s sleigh too. All it needs is reins and some reindeer out front and it’d be close to the real thing.
You can also get a range-topping S63 version packing Mercedes’ powerful 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine, making those last-minute dashes to deliver presents even quicker.
Land Rover Defender
If you’ve got to cover some difficult terrain at a pace with your drop-offs this Christmas, look toward the Land Rover Defender.
Designed for optimum durability, the Defender can handle extreme terrains and confidently takes you from the urban jungle, to shifting sands and icy environments.

Tesla Model S
What’s better than one boot when carrying tons of presents? Two, of course — and that’s exactly what the Tesla Model S has.
With its batteries stored on the floor of the car, that extra space in the bonnet can come in handy when playing eco-friendly Father Christmas this year. Plus with up to 334 miles of range between charges, you’ll be able to quietly cover even the longest of drop-off runs.
Volkswagen Up! GTI
For the urban-based, last-minute delivery runs, you’re going to need some agile enough to navigate tight city streets but also quick enough to get the presents under the tree in time.
Step in the Volkswagen Up! GTI. Taking the German city car’s proven capabilities and adds a spritely 108bhp engine — giving it go-kart like credentials. Okay, so you’re going to struggle on larger presents, but those stocking fillers won’t be a problem.
Ferrari GTC4 Lusso
If Father Christmas has a dream car, we suspect it’d be a Rosso Corsa Ferrari GTC4 Lusso. This genuine Italian stallion not only boasts a screaming V12 under its long bonnet, but also four-wheel drive and a decent sized boot thanks to its shooting-brake bodystyle — making it a capable delivery machine too.
Perhaps the only thing holding him back is just how loud it is. He knows you won’t be sleeping after pulling up in it…
Merry Christmas everyone!
