Peugeot boss Linda Jackson has said electrification could make SUVs extinct as aerodynamic designs take precedence

Her most recent comments back what former Citröen boss Vincent Cobée told Autocar last year, when he claimed the SUV could be “on the verge of extinction”.

He revealed that designers are placing increasing emphasis on how slippery a car can be, with “anything which is high or squarish” more than likely not considered for reasons of aero efficiency.CobéeHe added: “Because whether your car is aero or not, in the current ICE world, you just increase the fuel tank. [In the] fully electric world, you lose autonomy because of aerodynamics, so the link is much stronger.
