MANILA, Philippines – When the crossover sports utility vehicle (SUV) design made its way into the automotive market, nobody expected it to be such a hit so fast. The success of the new vehicle segment can be attributed to the fact that it answered the needs of a growing market: the young, adventurous urbanite.
Millennials, otherwise known as the YOLO-heralding, adventure-seeking generation, want a vehicle that can take them straight from their day jobs to the beach. The crossover SUV lets them do just that and then some, by combining the power, space and off-road capabilities of a regular SUV with the practicality and comfort features of a sedan.
Standout features
A new crossover SUV brings more to the table, with an impressive 1.4L Turbocharge engine technology that offers power on demand as well as fuel efficiency. It’s spacious enough to comfortably accommodate 5 adults and has a flexible seating configuration that allows anyone to load more essentials.
The new crossover SUV is also compact enough to maneuver through the Metro’s narrow side streets, and is robust enough to handle extreme weather changes and long out-of-town trips. Plus, it veers away from the boxy aesthetic of large SUVs in favor of a sleek and sporty look.
Most important of all, this all-around adventure vehicle has several active safety features commonly found on top-of-the-line mid-size SUVs that will give both driver and passengers peace of mind: whether it’s traversing through uneven concrete on highways, cruising through long open roads, or navigating steep slopes and sharp corners out of town.
The crossover SUV sounds like it has all the bases covered. Take a look at some of its standout features below and see if it’s the car for you. — Rappler.com
