Sportscar manufacturers are increasingly often building fat and ugly SUVs. It all started when in the early 2000s Porsche came out with the revolutionary Cayenne which would change SUVs for ever. The original Cayenne was an amazing car but that has had a disastrous effect on the car world. I'll run you through some sportscar manufacturers SUVs and tell why they shouldn't have been made.
Lamborghini Urus: Lamborghini's symbol is the fighting bull and there Huracán and Aventador models all live up to that expectation of being purely aggressive. The Urus is a fat cow with an Audi engine at its heart very much the shape of an RSQ8. The reason they built was for a financial win which they did succeed in.
Ferrari Purosangue: a hopeless attempt to try and rival Lamborghinis financial gains from the Urus. Although Ferrari has built some family cars previously,the FF and the GTC4 Lusso,they never have left their supercar attitude like the Purosangue has.
Lotus Eletre: quite simply brakes every Colin Chapman policy! His cars where to be light,with a small engine and little power but also a little body to make them great for track use but not for straight line speed. The Eletre is a massively heavy (due to the large battery and big bulk) and has no track use but in straight line pace it is incredibly fast due to its 900hp battery. Not a lotus in my mind!
Do you agree that supersuvs made by supercar companies are only cash profit cars or do you like them? Let's hope McLaren never falls into the same trap as Ferrari and Lamborghini

Every time I see another performance brand shifting toward SUVs, I think about how honda managed both markets. Models like the Civic Type R keep the spirit alive, but their SUV lineup feels like a totally different identity. It’s not that they’re bad vehicles—they’re practical—but the driving feel isn’t even close. I get the sales logic, but when brands spread too wide, their core starts to blur. Some names were built on speed and feel, not cargo space.

Hey, ik las je post over supersuvs en dacht even iets totaal anders te proberen voor wat spanning. Zo kwam ik toevallig bij spinmacho casino, waar spelers uit België allerlei casinospellen kunnen ontdekken. In het begin verliepen een paar rondes niet zo goed en verloor ik wat inzetten, maar daarna besloot ik wat grotere bedragen te wagen en ineens behaalde ik een mooie winst. Het gaf echt een kick en maakte het spelen veel leuker dan ik had verwacht. Sindsdien log ik er regelmatig in, vooral om nieuwe spellen uit te proberen en te zien welke strategieën werken, het voelt echt als een klein avontuur elke keer.
