I don't get the hate for SUV's but I love them. Just put a deposit down on a Polestar 3.
Sure, they are heavier but trucks are even heavier and all EV's are heavier than their ICE competitors. The Polestar 3 I ordered is quite aerodynamic so not all SUV's are the same in that regard. All EV's have a much lower centre of gravity than ICE vehicles (but still higher than an EV car) so your point is valid.
The Polestar 3 has an air ride suspension with a torque vectoring dual clutch rear end which makes performance amazing. At least based on my research as they're not really out in the wild yet.
