This is like the Murano's bigger brother. Used some styling from the Maxima and the Quest Mini Van. Still under works.

Good perspectively, but im not sure about the front, looks like a megane type front. Everthing else is good though.

You've got a bit of potential with this one. Unlike Ra, I like the front, I think it's actually the most alluring part of the car.
First off, design. You want something that looks rugged and tough. Right now I'd class it somewhere int he minivan section. The front end is creative, very Nissan-like, the rest flows off into outdated, boxy generic form. Get that from originality and flow it into the whole car. Think Murano.
Second, basics. An SUV needs the right overhangs (small ones). It needs hefty ground clearence. It's gotta be (like mentioned) tall and strong. Right now your roofline is far too swept back and short. It looks like only really tall people would be able to see out of the side windows. I'd change that up, lift the car and make it musclier (ha). I don't think that concave side panel is a good idea. It may be just my opinion, but you don't want a thin little SUV, you ant a round-sided bulgy one. Even the "sleek" ones are still rounded out on the sides. Check the Murano again. Last, you want the suspension to fit in there. Imagine at most 19 in' in there, and a couple inches of suspension travel in the wheel wells. Make them dark so you can emphasize its rugged abilities. Bigger top half, smaller wheels and bulk. I like the ideas on the front grille, definately this piece's forte. Use that creativity all the way to the tail
Oh and by the way, It's cool to not have a wheel design, just make sure you fill in an undershadow. If yu don't have wheels, you need at least something to anchor the car to the ground.
Megane=Nissan design, almost. Some techicalities, but they're both very closely influenced by eachother.
EDIT: Sorry, didn't see the little bit about "Still under works."
Good luck!
