You didn’t mention height and isn’t that the actual issue?

Increased hood height kills people and creates an absurdly large blind area. Massive pillars add roll safety but create horrible blind spots in left hand turns.
A sedan is the perfect shaped car in my opinion. Wagons are nice too.
And nevermind that often these cars come with other compromises that signal they aren't really intended for "utility" use, for example the Taycan can't fit a regular tow receiver so forget about using a bike carrier with it other than the overpriced two-bike one that is available from the manufacturer.

It seems people buying new cars mostly want big cars.
