I don't know why you say that.

I might have to aero-template a few of these SUV's to prove to the crowd that they match the template better than most cars.

I think in general the SUV's great failing has been the non-sloping roof. That has changed in the last four years or so.

The roof racks, protruding tires and other details are also killers, but that too has been under development and getting more sophisticated all the time.

The undercarriage is notorious, and that is changed in the Lambo Urus, they have a cost no problem attitude with that one.
