What, no comments about the Alpine concept's engine not being in the rear? Hooniverse, I am disappoint. Well, I'll say it.

It's not an Alpine unless there's catastrophic lift-off oversteer, dammit!

Yes, but big cooshy cars and SUVs appeal to the reptilian brain, the part that things bigger = safer, softer = safer. The lizard brain wants to be cocooned.
