SUVs are a fashion that has its origins in a military or professional need, are therefore the answer given by the automakers to whom needed a professional vehicle and at same time meet the needs of their evasion and leisure, with comfort, performance and safety for themselves and their families. Thus, professional vehicles, not comfortable, slow and without major safety concerns, have led to vehicles that confer status to their owners.
SUVs are becoming more and more popular (among rich people) for a variety of reasons.
Vehicle buyers were drawn to their large cabins, higher ride height, and perceived safety. Additionally, some full-size SUVs have far greater towing capacities than conventional cars, allowing owners to tow travel trailers (caravans), trailers, and boats with relative ease.
The automakers decided to build vehicles with more powerful engines and apply leading-edge technical solutions and equip them with the most advanced safety systems, and of course with the inevitable systems of the four-wheel traction, which allows the so desired off-road incursions.
Safety is a must in these vehicles, airbags abound as well. Front side airbags and curtain side airbags are standard fare. Some also have the ability to deploy in the event of a rollover. If you’re feeling adventurous, vehicles such as the Range Rover have hill descent control that limits the vehicle’s speed when going down steep inclines.
