The CR-V has a small interior because it’s a SUV/Crossover. Those cars are exactly what’s wrong with cars at the moment: higher, heavier, worse visibility, small inner space.
What you want as a family is not a bigger SUV but a Kombi or a Minivan.
Sadly minivans are almost impossible to find. There are only 3-4 models remaining in production and they can have lead times as long as a year and dealers can add almost any markup they want. I’m hoping to eventually get a VW ID Buzz or Canoo electric van, but those are both seemingly infinitely delayed. And I can lease a 3 row suv for about $400/month.
We can’t have a sedan because you can’t put a dog in the back, and no one makes station wagons anymore. So our choice is simply which length of SUV we get.
