Video Description

In this video, we explore why modern cars—especially SUVs and trucks—keep getting larger, and what that means for drivers and cities. From marketing trends and consumer psychology to safety regulations and automaker profits, we break down the surprising reasons behind the size surge. Is bigger really better, or are we paying the price in ways we don’t always see?
