The hell is that?? I want one.

Thank you! The updated headlights look 10x better than the fried eggs.

And I’d take a small car over one of these death pods any day. Miatas, BRZ86s, Minis....

True, but what’s wrong with convertibles?

Have you heard of these things called motorcycles?

It’s about both, depends on who you ask. I’ve personally met multiple people who camp / do outdoors shit, and bought crossovers specifically for more ground clearance.

Shit, that’s even worse! The data from C&D (6.5") was for the “Adventure” trim RAV, what a joke. Does no one do their research before buying these things?

Actually not as justified as you think. JAPC0703 pointed out to me that the new RAV4 has less ground clearance than the Corolla; 6.5" vs 6.7".

That’s just sad. Confirmed by Car and Driver, in case anyone is curious.

Everyone else wants more ground clearance, and I’m over here like

Yep, same face too. More room for a motorcycle or camping gear in the back, though.

Yeah, it’s all moot. I was hypothesizing. AKA IF it wasn’t already doomed and they had made an effort in styling and marketing, I think it would’ve sold well. That is all.

You said that already.

Yeah, and there wasn’t much marketing to begin with.

The Mazda5 was great too, basically drove just like the 3.

It would make a hell of a two-car garage with an NA Miata.

Huh, I hadn’t made that connection. Interesting. I still think it would’ve sold better if it had looked more aggressive, but maybe that was the idea. Too bad.

I had the exact same thought. They’ve gotta make it look sexy though, or it’ll die as quickly as the Chevy SS.
