Suv sales are going up. It's just people don't like sedans. I think title is a little misleading.

- agumonkey 8y agoI've read somewhere that SUV attracted people because they were in an easier emission category, which meant they appear cheaper for the size.
- berberous 8y agoSedans are also less desirable as more and more people drive SUVs -- it makes it hard to see traffic and it's more dangerous when you are the lowest person on the road.
- swerveonem 8y agoNah, low center of gravity with nimble handling is better. I'll take an all wheel drive S4, ATS, C class or 3 series over an SUV any snowy day. Sport sedans have swagger too, the only swaggerific SUVs are the Escalade, Cullinan, Urus, Porsche SUVs. But those are out of the price range most of humanity can afford to buy within. I have never had a problem seeing traffic.
- u801e 8y ago> I'll take an all wheel drive S4, ATS, C class or 3 series over an SUV any snowy day I hope you're putting on the correct type of tires for snowy days. A lot of those models come with summer/performance tires which are incompatible with snow. For my S4, I have a set of Bridgestone Blizzak snow tires that I use during the winter months.
- berbec 8y agoI had an awd ats with blizzak all around. It handled the snow better than any suv I'd been in.
- ianai 8y agoDriving absolutely is an arms race. I wonder what engineering would come up with if they started with a premise of 2 seats, back to front, centered, and with an eye towards safety against large vehicles.
- agumonkey 8y agoAlso parking spot... So fun
- Johnny555 8y agoThat probably has something to do with automakers spending the past decade teaching us that we should like SUV's.
- mikeash 8y agoThe word “car” is really fun. It can mean “sedan” or “personal passenger road vehicle” depending or what kind of point you want to make.
