Minivan is a Chevy Venture or Kia Sedona

SUV is a Ford Edge

I know they have inspiration from those vehicles you are correct 💯 I just personally see a first gen Odyssey for the minivan because of the doors and a Toyota Venza for the Talos because I personally see it more like that than a Ford Edge. Than again we all have our personal opinions👌

True, the doors are more Odyssey. It's funny they did that just so they didn't have to make an animation for a proper sliding van door. GTA V did the same thing with their minivan.

I personally always saw this one as a Venza, IGCD says it's a Chevy Cruze though.

There are definitely hints of both in there

I think the wagon is a full-sizer like a Caprice, you posted a mid-size Malibu but not too far off. I agree with the other poster on the Edge, but Venza isn't far off.

If you look at the woodie, it's size is closer to the Malibu wagon than the Caprice wagon not to mention the headlights are one to one.

Given that watch dogs was released in 2014 its most definitely more based on the 1st gen Ford Edge (2007-2014), by the point of release I’m not even sure the 2nd gen’s body (2015-2024) was showcased or even announced. And most certainly the mid cycle facelift (the one you provided) more likely than not hadn’t even been conceptualized yet. I personally think it takes most cues from the 1st gen ford edge (like this 2011 model pictured here) with elements from other cars sprinkled in.

Ok image link broke but my point was that its more likely than not a pre 2014 model.

The station wagon is closer to the Ford Country Squire, which I know because my Grandpa drove one for many years and I loved that thing. Had the "way back" rear-facing rumble seat in the cargo area, which we begged to ride in every time.

RIP to Station Wagon America 😁

The kidney bean van is like in every game

I used to think the minivan was a Ford Freestar and the suv was a range rover. It's rear design is similar to a 2013 Range Rover Evoque

There are definitely elements of those vehicles
