People are only buying crossovers. Don't blame car companies for making cars people buy.
car manufacturers are the ones who made people want SUVs/crossovers in the first place.

I'd argue that crossovers are the "default" type of car now. They really are just hatch/wagon cars with some different styling and typically a slightly higher suspension.
Also: I'm glad people here are saying "crossover" rather than "SUV". They are not the same.
They have become visually indistinguishable, though.
