People with families have been fooling around with larger vehicles for some time: station wagons -> minivans -> SUVs -> CUVs. It's not new.


Most of the time people drive SUVs alone.

I go for walks in the morning and there's a road bottleneck and it's hilarious and sad to see the cars queueing up on both sides, huge ones, with a single person in them, every morning.

I do own a station wagon, and it's shorter than most SUVs, and I use it for long trips, but let's be realistic, that's not what most drives are.


>Most of the time people drive SUVs alone.

Most of the time people drive sedans alone.

If people bought based purely on passenger need 99% of vehicles on the road should be 2-seat coupes, pickups and vans.


I agree, I was just answering to the "people with families drive large cars" in general, and wrote SUV accidentally.
