Looks like an interesting first entry; curious to see what people think of it once it hits the market.

They're mostly hatchbacks with extra ground clearance for people to pretend they don't own a hatchback.

Hatchbacks with bigger blind spots, a higher ~~battering ram~~ hood, more weight, worse fuel economy... I think most rare closer to "brawny" minivans without the practicality.
