That’s quite ugly, especially the front and side views. As for SUVs, I like the look of the Tesla X, so that’s what I drive.

Why would you need an SUV in the first place? going offroadin'? A sedan does the same job. Plus SUV kills more people every year.

Better storage. Some of us DIY our houses and you cannot get anything into a car trunk. It does not do the same job.
That's why you have wagons.....although everyone's lust for SUVs has caused manufacturers to ditch most of their wagon offerings.
Because wagons are hideous.
You do realize that an SUV in many cases are just a wagons which have been raised an inch, added some cladding to it and voila...its an SUV (and not a wagon). A raised price tag also as you're paying for more metal without getting any extra interior room or benefits (not always but e.g. VW Sportwagen and VW All-Track is the same car. Same with Subaru Outback and Subaru Legacy Wagon......latter which is not sold in the US). Kinda like telling yourself that Superman is a much nicer person than Clark Kent.
We test drove a wagon and our SUV. The wagon had considerably less trunk space due to the hatchback and more blind spots trying to see out the back.

The Jeep Compass is cute. The one OP posted is more sporty than cute.

I'm with you. I had a Lexus sedan a few years ago and it was the best car I've ever owned. Want another, but the front end is hideous and can't get past it.

I've owned SUV's since the early 80's , use them for surf fishing, going skiing and roaming dirt roads in the mountains. Plus I have a job where I have to be at work, no matter what the weather is doing. The big snows, I get to work with no problems. Not everyone fits in your idea's of what other people need.

No SUVs are cute by definition. No Cadillacs are cute by definition.
That Volvo somebody posted above is hideous, though.

What is the difference between a wagon and a SUV. I like to be higher up so I can see the road better. An SUV is easier with kids lifting them in/out/car seats. A wagon is not as good for having a hitch to carry bikes and other gear for camping. Not everyone uses their vehicles like you.

Hideous, but then I'm inordinately picky.
