The Model S has 60 cubic feet of cargo space. Is it an SUV?

I'm reminded of Meet the Parents ("I have nipples Greg. Can you milk me?")

I'm sure my parents' Caprice station wagon had more volume. That's also not an SUV.

But car categories are definitely blurring these days. A lot of so-called SUVs just look like cars with the roof bulged up a few inches and a juice to the ride height. It's weird. The BMW X6 is an ugly abomination in my book ("let's take a car, and just... inflate it a bit, yeah?")

I think all of SUV "coupes" are horrible. Each one is uglier than the next. They scream "I have inferiority complex and fantasize a coupe but milady wants a truck". A incredible display of vulgarity.

they cleverly don't mention that there's cargo space in the front, where the engine is on normal SUVs :)

the back may not be as spacious in as one would expect.
