Minivans are a good option for some families. But they suck for towing trailers, and the ground clearance is terrible if you ever have to drive on a dirt road.

I still find it crazy that no station wagon exists other than Volvo.. like Audi does not export their A4/A6/A8 estate version? Skoda, Mitsubishi, Toyota neither?
I can understand if you live in an area where roads are not well maintained or mostly dirt, SUV is really alluring. But for city driving is a massive (literally) problem for everyone.
I am all in on retrofitting a 1973 Ford Country Squire faux-wood-panel-in-green station wagon with a set of Kia uniwheels.
It's a lot bigger than my Prius, and that happily takes 4 (5 with a squeeze) climbers with all their gear!
