I guess if you move your seat all the way up it might be but if you put it in the lowest position it is definitely car like.

So you've never had a sports car? The seating is higher than our old 1er, which was very tall for a sporty car, and the X1 is higher. The CX5 seating position is very nearly the exact same, and it's quite clearly an SUV.
I'm guessing you feel the Forester is a big wagon too? If you want to see it as a wagon, that's cool, but ask your friends, family or just the next person you see at the gas station what it is, it won't be a wagon.
This whole argument reminds me of things like the CLS and 6GC being called coupes. The only people that believe that are the ones who own them, all others know that they're sedans.
