I don't think people know what they want when they buy a car. Manufacturers sell turd crossovers like the Equinox or Highlander in high numbers. Most of them aren't even AWD, and the ones that are AWD have shit systems in them that are barely capable in light snow and rain. They literally have no redeeming qualities, and somehow they fly off the showroom floors.
I bought a Nissan Kicks, which is in your "turd crossover" category... and I love it because it's exactly what I want.
Its redeeming qualities are light weight and responsive handling, to feel like driving a nimble hatchback rather than a lumbering SUV, while having the raised cockpit, visibility, and most of the cargo space of an SUV. Lack of AWD is a feature; I don't do any towing or driving on snow or dirt to need it; FWD is lighter and cheaper and more efficient.
People have preferences that aren't the same as yours, and insulting them isn't necessary. Crossovers are very practical and people buy them for plenty of good reasons.
