This isn't simply a fashion. Part of the reason why cars are getting bigger is that people are getting fatter, and no longer fit into older models. That also explains why SUVs tend to appear first in countries where obesity is more prevalent, such as the US and UK.
- prng2021 3y agoLol no. Obese people are not the cause of a booming SUV, and now truck, market. Almost every single one of my friends drives a SUV, truck, or both and literally none of them are obese. Edit: a few are overweight, yes
- atlantic 3y agoThe fact that your friends all drive SUVs kind of proves my point. Assuming you're in the US, the vast majority of the population is, to put it kindly, portly. If you've lived there all your life, it's something you may not be aware of. Travel to, say, France, or Morocco, and you'll see the difference.
