According to Mercedes-Benz market research of cargo van drivers, the average daily mileage of a van in Europe is just around 60 miles...“it’s aimed primarily at businesses conducting multi-drop ‘last-mile’ deliveries in urban areas...

the article explains the market pretty well, you’re clearly not it. 

If this ever ships, the follow-up article will be one of two. Either:

I cannot imagine owning a 1.2L crossover and not wanting to drive off the nearest bridge.

I think it helps that FCA’s products are well styled. Everything I can think of off the top of my head is handsome and clean, without relying on flavor of the week gimmicks, fake vents, floating roofs, weird C pillars, running lights that zig zag up to the A pillar, etc.

Me and Maxyenko can’t be the only two people on kinja to get these references, can we?

I dunno, I think it’d be perfect for my daughter.

This is a starter’s car, not a finisher’s car. CP for not being the chariot of a golden god.

Anyone who uses the work “simp” needs to crawl back into their internet hole and stay there.

This will start under $30K just like the Wrangler does.

Nope, fuck your slideshow. Did not read.

This will probably be controversial, but personally I’d consider anything pre-airbag to be basically worthless except as a collector’s item or a toy to occasionally cruise around in on sunny weekends. I love these Toyotas, but I don’t see them as that kind of vehicle. I would love to have a small, simple, honest…
