It has pained me, this past summer, to find myself needing a car to transport bikes hither and yon for shows and exhibits.
As the time drew near, I was frantically searching through the Zip Car options for cars that looked like they'd hold a few bikes. I ended up Zip-car-renting a Toyota Tacoma pickup truck. Plenty of room for a trike and two bikes, plus all the gear for an exhibit. And kind of a sweet ride as well, I will admit.
I did a little research on-line and put together this list of cars that cyclists seem to like. I'd be happy to update it with your favorite, should you care to send it to me.
Skoda turbo diesel DSG wagon
Honda Jazz
