Comment on The average car purchased in 2023 emits higher levels of carbon dioxide (CO₂) than its 2013 equivalent. This is due to the large proportion of SUVs in the mix, which tend to be bigger and heavier.

That actually sounds pretty good to me. If the rear seats go down so I can put bigger stuff in the back, that’s a huge advantage over the weird trunk angles you have to work with in a sedan. I don’t need to tow anything, but a slightly higher ride is useful when I’m going out in the woods and need to clear rocks in the middle of the unmaintained road.

Except the price. That’s unnecessary.

The ecosport has neither trunk room nor rear leg room. The only way to get any amount of space is to put the rear seats down then you can fit some things.

Height is an advantage, but length is still surprisingly short. Plus ya know, no rear passenger room.

  Hmm, you’re right. Needs a bit more length.
