I see a comment I’m not going to engage with, but I have two kids and I had them happily in a Honda Fit and a VW GTI (3 door) when they were little.

I came here to say this is a great idea, I literally took a loss and sold my Volvo XC40 Recharge and went back to an old BMW i3 because the larger vehicles honestly don’t make actual sense (the article clarifies this more than I’m going to bother with here) to me.

We need to stop propelling tanks and start driving vehicles sized to fit the need.

A Honda Fit weighs over 1000 kg. It's in a much larger size class than the vehicles in OP.

Yes, a Fit is fine with two polite and compliant children. Try three and a dog, and behavioral issues.

Very few households have six family members. Far less than 1%, maybe even less than 0.1%.
Or two kids who have friends
