I feel like, at this point, trying to categorize cars based on body shape is mostly just a marketing tactic. Like the CX-3, the CX-30 is just a Mazda3 with higher suspension. The Crosstrek is an Impreza with higher suspension.
As consumers demand various things from a high driving position to a sleek coupe design as well as good performance but still having good efficiency, cars will have to converge to a single optimal design. This is what we're getting, from the Ioniq 5 to the Mustang Mach-E and the BMW X4 to the new Toyota Crown. This is what peak performance looks like. Cars are going to just be large, tall blobs, because that is how we're going to get the most interior space while having the ride height and efficiency and body shape categorization will no longer matter
