The state of our roads are terrible, which encourages bigger tyres and cars with more ground clearance, and hence bigger cars. They’re so bad that any MP or councillor who promises to fix potholes will get a lot of support. But crossover are a good compromise. They’re still quite light, have efficient engines and aren’t really that different to their hatchback counterparts. I do think car manufacturers set their prices of this segment way too high, but the market has spoken (they sell tremendously well) However I feel the need to feel more important and bigger is a considerable factor in their popularity too. They also reflect our growing waistlines.
