My Audi is a small punchy A3 with a turbo. First off people driving here in Los Angeles are so distracted with their phones, and when they’re in these large vehicles it’s easy to navigate around them and actually get places quickly.
I really can’t understand why just about everyone here drives those huge cars: they’re slow, they consume a lot of gas (if non-EV) and rarely do you see them actually hauling anything. In fact the real people that need them (landscapers, etc.) are usually driving smaller trucks.
Fat people like fat cars.
