SUV — good off‑road, but makes no sense for urban driving, neither for efficiency nor for feel.
Hatchbacks give a modest boost in practicality over a traditional sedan while keeping a true sense of driving, rather than “riding” the car like you do in an SUV.
Granted, the SUV is a clear winner on those days when my back hurts and lowering myself into the driver’s seat is a problem.
