Is the existence of crossovers/compact SUV's a result of just the manufacturer(like one day the Product Head says "We'll add a crossover to the lineup bois!") or market demand?
Also do you like crossovers?
>Whatever the answer, please also say a reason as to why you chose your answer.
market demand, basically women ruined the car market, just like they basically ruin everything they come to.
I don't like crossovers since they are useless, look ugly and basically have nothing speaking for them
Market demand. Consumers literally want everything.
>I want to fuel efficient
>but I want to be sporty
>and I want to be safe
>and I want to be practical
>but I don't want a hatch or a wagon!
>can I have AWD too please
People want that high seat but don't wanna drive this.
Something "sporty" and "active" is also good to market something. As more and more people by these higher vehicles people with normal cars have to switch because they can't see shit on the road anymore.
As the others said:
(Female) Market demand. I may have to replace my '98 Cherokee and I figured I'd look at the compact SUV/crossover selection. They're essentially more stylish minivans. 6" clearance, 170ft/lb torque, and 7 seats available.
I don't off road, so I guess I can't hate them. I just like having the capability to get where I need to in bad conditions. I kind of like the Tiguan. Good get for the price, but no lift options out there:/ probably will get that when Betsy kicks it.
I daily one of these with the 3mzfe v6 and awd and it's pretty comfy honestly, it has good cargo space, good interior room, lots of leg room, its peppy enough with 240hp and 3900 lb curb weight, and it gets good traction in the snow with 50/50 awd, 10/10 would daily again
It's demand
Honda only sold 10,000 more civics than CRVs last year same story for the RAV4/Corolla
CUV sales will probably outstrip compacts this year
midsize too if Trump gets rid of CAFE
Crossovers are the hip thing right now, so everybody makes one (or two, or three, or four...).
They'll all jump on the next fad, too.
cross overs have always been a thing man, this looks more like a crossover than any sedan
You literally just described a Subaru WRX
