In my opinion the best Urban/City vehicle for a family person would be a wagon or hatch. Handling of a sedan, fuel economy of a sedan, not oversized or cumbersome and practicality of an suv however the powers that be say that there is no market for them in the NAR/US and instead we get hatchbacks on stilts labeled "crossovers" or "cute-ute" or anything in-between.
I do agree with the avoidance statement the individual in the video made and I would like to add that the higher line of sight and view is a tremendous plus. When I drive a full size RR through the city pedestrians do not jaywalk, cabs do not try to squeeze in front, smaller vehicles yield instead of forcing their way in. It is a much less stressful drive other than that a hatch or touring or avant would be the ideal vehicle.
