On the outside, cars like the berlingo offer so much more room on the inside than even large SUVs it's not even funny. Goes to show that many of the "I need a large car because I have a family" arguments, are really more about looking big from the outside, not so much about internal practicalities.
My mom got one mainly because it was convenient for transporting my grandma. Not many cars you can exit from sitting height. Of course it also fits a lot of crap when e.g. going on holiday. It's an odd in-between between a sedan and a van.
The older Berlin OS were much more trade/transport cars, but the newer Berlingo comes in a family version which is pretty cool (and received reviews at least in the German press).
