The clutch, brake oil, engine oil and air filters of the car should be checked and replaced if needed. Also, the tyre pressure must be monitored before departure and a spare wheel should be kept in the boot in case of any on-road problem.

People going via family cars should see to it that all the necessary on-road equipment are stocked in the luggage. The family cars must be equipped with a first-aid kit in case there is any unexpected occurrence on the midway. Also, the electronic devices, such as stereo and AC should be functioning properly to avoid any inconveniences during the journey.

While selecting among the best MUVs, people must see to it that which one is efficient in terms of mileage and on-road performance. Also, it must be checked that which of these MUVs are stocked with comfortable features of entertainment and comfort.
