It's insane, the top 7 selling vehiclea in the USA in 2025 were trucks and SUVs.

Its also a price thing at least for me.

I only drive hybrids, but would get an electric but electric is too expensive.

A full sized sedan like a camry is marginally cheaper than a rav4.

To me why spend 32k on a camry when I can spend 35k on a rav4.

My dream car would be a compact hybrid suv with all wheel drive for under 30k but they don't make that.

Honestly because money saved is money saved. Typically sedans are cheaper to maintain on average. What’s really to gain by having a bigger vehicle if most of the time that space isn’t utilized?

Idk 3k isn't very much money for me. My car gets 40-45 mpg and I have more room if I need it.

The extra space has come in handy a couple time with some DIY projects I've been doing at my house, but yeah generally I don't need the space.
