I am pretty sure, that “lightweight” and “family” are not easy to combine unless you’re family of three without the need for a luggage.
Those new electric cars need big batteries just to be somehow usable. Recently consumed 35 kWh for 65 miles ride on model Y with trailer in cold weather. That makes <150 miles total winter range with trailer with fully charged battery.
Most petrol family cars are less than 1500 kg in Europe. Americans are used to overweight cars and that's spreading to here too. Though it's often a problem since most city parking spots are smaller than huge cars like Tesla model Y.
Based on your experience? My parents use their Golf 7 to drive down south to Italy from Germany every other year. Two adults, two teenagers, and one small dog fit in better than into my dad's late 2000s Mercedes S class
Half of Germany drove to Italy with their VW Beetles back then. It’s a traditional thing. However there are some neighborhoods where with second child family buys their Mercedes V class or VW T6. I prefer those over the ones having Ford Fiesta as a family car.
