I’m not sure where you’re getting the poor handling or the high CoG from. It has a low CoG because the battery components are installed near the bottom and they make up a large percentage of the car’s weight.

It also handles quite well, mostly thanks to the low CoG. It feels firmly planted and is very nimble in turns. Sure, it’s not an e46 M3 but it would be crazy to expect that.

It also sounds to me like you don’t actually even know what an SUV is. I know it seems crazy but there’s no requirement to comment if you’re uninformed on a subject and aren’t capable of adding value to the discussion.

Looks like kinda like an suv, at least. Why did they make it so tall? what's with the SUV-like shape?
