If you're a mom, would you drive this luxury SUV?

[Anonymous]

Absolutely not. This is a race to the bottom as far and bigger and bigger vehicles being made. This is prime to run over someone’s toddler that you can’t see in a cross walk. Not to mention it’s hideous, looks like a nightmare to get kids/sports equipment in and out of, and would be a pain to deal with parking wise around here (even just parallel parking my minivan or fitting it into some of the smaller parking garages around here can be tricky).

Yeah don't lease or finance that. I ain't against leasing or more "luxury" SUVs (not that I consider this a luxury SUVs) as some people here as sometimes leasing can make sense (EVs especially) but not this.

I know you are a woman, but as a man, if I saw someone (a guy) driving this, to me it would scream small PP energy,as if the guy was overcompensating. Plus an Suv like that is a menace on the road (more dangerous for everyone else driving around it due to its size and weight) so would be completely selfish to drive it.

If he really wants an Ev SUV that is fun to drive that he can drive as well, get a Mustang Mach E, a Tesla Model Y, a Kia Ev6 or a Hyundai ioniq 5. Cuz let's be honest here, he is getting that for himself, not for you.

No. It's so ugly.

It's a very aggressive looking car. Look at the BMW iX - it's an electric SUV with every bell and whistle and SO. MUCH. ROOM. inside. Bonus that BMW is running a subsidized lease offer right now so leasing it actually makes financial sense.

It’s a former frat boy auto, that and pick up trucks. I never take my husband with me when I buy a car. I know what I need and I can do my own research.

The idea of an electric vehicle for snow/bad weather is an oxymoron. Batteries lose their charge way, way faster in cold weather and charge even slower.

Second, off road (even non-serious) is stupid amounts of stress on the suspension due to the weight of the batteries. The vehicle would be destroyed quickly.

I would get a Lexus lx or infinity q80 (2025) for 100k range.

I live in a ski town - Rivians and Teslas are very popular and do surprisingly well in the snow. Tesla doesn't have enough ground clearance for a super steep driveway, but it is otherwise fine on snowy roads. The Rivian SUV has plenty of ground clearance, so it's good everywhere in the snow.

That is the color I'm leaning towards, in this spec. The rear end is still so ugly to me.

This car is really not a mom car. The wheels don't look like any sort of vehicle a family adult would have on a car. The body isn't terrible, but the wheels are ridiculous for a mom.

Sure it is. UMC and ditzy SAHM who carries a Stanley all day and wears Lulu and big designer shades. Kids play travel sports. Big suburban new build.

You don’t know what the hell you’re talking about. And your obsession with genitalia is creepy and weird. See a professional about that.

No but I loved my Honda odyssey.

A year in my H admitted it was a work horse and a great decision.

Sounds like a caricature. Agree with pp that it's not a mom car.

Minivans make sense because they have sliding doors.

[Anonymous]

Yes but I drive a wrangler.

[Anonymous]

I would if someone else was paying for it, but honestly I know my child would be scared of it.

Does it even fit in a parking space?

The amount of storage it has is also key … moving to college was a snap,

What is your use case for a vehicle, and does that thing fit? I'd guess it does not actually meet your needs. It's very big and tall, so will be difficult to get in and out of, and to park. You'll be hauling around more cargo and passenger space than you need. The size implies ungainly handling.

To be frank, that is a "look at me" vehicle more than anything else. It's expensive, and something of an eyesore. A lot like a Tesla CyberTruck. For the same money you can get something which is more understated, better performing, and equipped with similar amenities, without driving something which says you're insecure and need validation by getting other people to stare at you. To that extent, this kind of thing is like junky cars with obnoxiously loud exhausts, nothing special to drive but meant to draw attention to the driver.
