The family car used to sit lower. It was the hatchback, the estate, the saloon, the station wagon, the MPV, or the minivan - practical, familiar, and shaped around ordinary life. Then, slowly and almost without ceremony, the SUV and crossover took over.

The Crossover Takeover: How the SUV Quietly Replaced the Family Car tells the story of how a once-rugged vehicle idea became the default choice for school runs, supermarket trips, company-car lists, family holidays, city streets, premium showrooms, and electric-car planning. Clear, balanced, and accessible, this book explains why buyers moved upward: the appeal of height, perceived safety, easier access, status, marketing, family practicality, leasing, platform engineering, diesel, hybrids, electric power, and the powerful feeling of driving something that seems ready for more than ordinary life.
