It's for posers, IMHO. Not even 4WD.

Sure, there will be a market for it - people who want something different and something that looks like they could escape from it all, etc. etc. Not much different from why large (real) SUVs sell, except that this one doesn't have much in the way of a space, seating or height advantage.

It probably doesn't hurt that it looks ok, except for that garish interior, but it's more for the idea of offroading than the actual activity. Heck, you wouldn't want to scratch your new 17" alloy wheels, or that faux metal front bash plate that isn't even the lowest point on the bumper, right?
