The Non-Luxury CUV Trend for 2015 in the US

Many non-luxury brands are rolling out a new type of car. When I say new, I mean new in size. These ares are smaller than their larger cousins. The cars are the CUV. However, these are not the size of a Honda CR-V.

In fact, they are even smaller. For example, the new Honda HR-V is 169.1 inches long. Its brother, the Honda CR-V, is 179.4 inches long.

Making a smaller CUV is not a bad idea. They provide enough room for the family and enough room for the cargo They are cuter and cheaper than SUVs and most crossovers. Not only to buy, but to maintain. Best of all, they are much easier to park than SUVs and most crossovers.

There are not many downsides to the CUV. One of the issues is they are much more limited when it comes to going off road.  But, I'm not saying that they can't go off road. The Jeep Renegade would prove me wrong. Also, if you want to carry a shelf from Ikea and two other passengers, then the CUV would not be very helpful. If you have a family of six or more, then at least one of them will have to sit at home and eat prunes.

The demand for this type of car is high right now, and it's easy to see why. In fact, CR-V sales are lower than usual because of the new HR-V. This new breed of cars is cheaper, smaller, and cuter than SUVs and most crossovers. Best of all, they provide enough room for everything.
