That looks like a radio controlled buggy on a paving slab!!

OMG. Why did I not think of that acronym before. So obvious in hindsight. Well done sir.

SUVization
New word for you
"SUVization"
"SUVization"
Regards NeilBigger is not better – how SUVs are killing the climate
"The car industry wants you to buy a big car.
Even if you don’t buy a Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV), your options for a ‘small car’ are disappearing as cars get bigger, and this is a huge problem."
"What we are witnessing is a ‘SUVization’ of the model ranges being offered. Even iconic small cars from bygone eras, like the Fiat 500 or the Mini, are now available as SUVs. Large cars are proving increasingly hard to avoid."

Re: I-spy an Ugly SUV
I think Rolls Royce lost their ability to build a good-looking car decades ago now, but this from Chinese Company Hongqi is going to provide competition for Rolls Royce in China.......Its electric, but its also bang on topic for this thread...
Brace yourselves
Rolls-Royce faces new competition in China
Under-the-radar Chinese company Hongqi aims to take on the luxury leader

A bit hard to listen to though. Still not as annoying as the male 'presenters'.
