Most sold cars in France are SUV and have been for a few years but they are European style SUV. Paris is full of them. For many of us, the very popular Nissan Quashcai or Peugeot 5008 are huge, oversized and not space-efficient cars but once I had an American tell me our style of SUVs were too small to fit her and her only child. So she drove some American SUV monstruosity. They may not be as big as American one, but we still got plenty of SUV.
Not in Paris though.
I live in Paris, I know what I’m talking about.
And I talk for a living, I Paris what I about.
