SUVs of their car counterparts drive like shit. Sure the Porche SUV drives nice, but the 911 drives wayyyy better. I’d take a wagon over an suv and just use snow tires when needed.
It’s been tested that an suv with regular tires and AWD can’t perform as well as a 2WD version with snow tires. With All seasons the snow performance is marginally better than snow tires.
“SUVs” in a lot of cases are just raised hatchbacks on what are essentially regular ol’ car platforms; nobody’s going off-roading in a dang CR-V.
(that doesn’t do any favors for their fuel efficiency though)

Stationwagons are definitely underrated.
Thats a more recent trend, SUVs used to be more like suburbans and escalades, basically trucks with seats retrofitted into the bed area.
I think the word for that is a “crossover”. Is there actually a smaller version of the CRV frame?
IIRC the accord is on the same frame as the CRV. At least thats what I heard about the current generation
