Do you feel a huge SUV like this is impractical in India?

So as you all know in my previous post I shared that I saw this 4th generation Cadillac Escalade in our city Bangalore in India for real outside the 1MG Lido Mall in Trinity Circle. This is definitely the largest SUV I have seen in person so far. As this is imported and super rare, this car is definitely exotic in India. But it definitely feels impractical in India. Thats because many roads in Bangalore are narrow and also congested and the city is notorious for traffic jams and congestions. It will be quite difficult to drive in many roads without worrying about getting a scratch on the SUV and taking U-turns or any turns would be harder especially in more congested roads. Its just too big. Most SUVs in India are much smaller than this. Even SUVs like the Toyota Fortuner which are popular in India are quite smaller than the Escalade. Also it has a massive 6.2L V8 engine which produces 420 HP. Many Indians prefer cars which are fuel efficient and gives a good mileage so most cars here have smaller 1.0L to 1.5L engine and some SUVs going up to 2.5L and producing 70-120 HP. A massive V8 SUV like this will have a very bad fuel efficiency so most won't use it and as its imported, it will be super expensive. So yeah its a shame that it won't be practical and only the richest of the rich can have one. Here is the video again of the Escalade I saw and filmed today
