I have been wondering about this for a long time already. What are the reasons why they purchase this type of vehicle? Its price is at the the same range as that of a ladder type SUV or a CUV. In fact the top of the line models are even more expensive. This has always baffled me. Does a mid-sized sedan carry more passengers than that of a compact sedan or a CUV? The ground clearance isn't higher than that of a CUV. Is it more fun to drive? Is it more reliable? I don't know where else I could post this question so I just posted it in this sub-forum.
