75% of the SUVs on the market are minivans without a sliding door.

And that cosmetic change is the point.

Most SUVs are for women who swore they would never drive a minivan. Like my wife.

In my opinion, hatchbacks cannot be true station wagons.

Station wagons either have swing out doors or fold down doors.

I don't like the looks really never plan on buying them. The lady may want one in the future but doubt it. She sticks with the sedans it seems.

That’s not a hatchback. It has the option of the window opening. But it’s a true wagon.

But your point is still taken.

An affordable station wagon would sell like hot cakes to the 40 yo middle class crowd.


As noted, that's the Outback. And they do sell like hotcakes.
