Watching tiny, single people drive gigantic SUVs around everywhere whilst looking just over the top of the steering wheel is quite discomforting. And parking spots filled with vehicles that barely fit in them.
It’s a safe bet that the problem is that much worse in the US. There’s a giant marketing apparatus here that’s dedicated to selling a self-image that includes giant trucks and SUVs.
World or US?

There are a lot of SUV type vehicles on the road in the UK, it’s frustrating was most people do not need that kind of car.

I imagine the world, many new cars sold in europe are also suv’s
In Ireland, can confirm. Two cars can barely get down many roads here and when ones an suv the driver looks at me in my 99 honda like I’m the problem
They’ve taken over estate cars and MPV’s/people carriers in the UK 😩
The last OEM I worked for in the UK had 2/3 of their vehicle sales volume being SUVs 😐
