I will be visiting the Kruger in April with 2 other adults and 2 teenagers. What is the best type of car to hire so we all get a good view of the animals?

open top bus?

Or if that's not an option a people carrier.
A 4x4 jeep type of thing.
make sure it has AC, you may need to keep the windows shut
though if it was a Diane Kruger park I'd suggest a camper van!
I'll start by pointing out the obvious!

An MPV would probably be your best choice of vehicle.

Ensure that you're fully conversant with all of the information on the Park's official website:

I used a Jeep Cheokee, it was great, very comfey and a perfect view.
you might get a van with a roof that lifts up, so you can stand up and take photos without a window in your way.
We went to Kruger on a tour in a jeep. However, we saw more animals at the smaller game reserves. You have to stick to the road in Kruger and we only saw lions from a distance - asleep. Saw lots of giraffes and antelope and elephants. The animals we wanted to see stay away from the road. Also Kruger is a malaria area, the some other reserves in South Africa are free of malaria.
