I haven't even heard of this vehicle (no surprise since I'm not in the market) but it looks slick! -- nm

I'm not a huge fan of it myself in person. It's kinda a weird squat hatchback/wagon crossbread. It drives nice though, has good storage, and was one - oblique Oct 11, 07:27 16
- It's what happens when you want to sell a hatchback but don't want to sell a hatchback. - spamlet Oct 11, 07:34 1
  - Yeah, the Hyundai one is nicer looking but they don't sell the PHEV in the midwest. -- nm - oblique Oct 11, 07:37
- Yeah, this style of vehicle is odd to me as well. It's not an SUV, it's not a car, it's kind of in between. I do hope you love it and have no issues. - Krusty Oct 11, 07:32 13
  - I believe they call them CUVs... -- (edited) - ty97 Oct 11, 07:33 12
    - ish. The Bolt we're trying to buy is an "EUV", which means just a little more leg room and storage -- (edited) - Reagen Oct 11, 07:42 2

    - What's the C? Car Utility Vehicle? IMO, this one is too high up to be in the station wagon class but what do I know. - Krusty Oct 11, 07:37 6
      - Crossover -- nm - ty97 Oct 11, 07:39 3

        Looks like crossover and compact are used. -- nm - Krusty Oct 11, 07:50
      - Compact I think -- nm - oblique Oct 11, 07:38 1
        
        Makes sense -- nm - Krusty Oct 11, 07:38
    - I mean I basically have one of those, a Crossover (suby Crosstrek). - tRuMaN Oct 11, 07:36 1
      - I definitely looked at the Subaru also. It really was a choice between the Kia, Subaru, Toyota RAV4 Prime and the Ford Escape - oblique Oct 11, 07:39
