MPVs are going extinct
► SUVs 1, people carriers 0
Citroen’s decision not to replace its MPV is indicative of the trend sweeping the industry: people carriers are out, SUVs and crossovers are in. Most brands are quietly discontinuing multi-purpose vehicles, the van-like genre of car swollen unpretentiously to provide multiple rows of seating without the on-tiptoe hike of a faux-by-four.
A quick glance at European sales figures over the past decade explains the decline. The top navy blue segment of this graph is the share of SUV sales across Europe, according to ACEA, the EU’s automotive trade body – and it inexorably grows, overtaking the humble family MPV in 2012 and never looking back.
