Have you driven one at all?

Seems to me that the easiest thing to do would be for you to take one out for an extended test drive to see if it suits you. If you don't know in 20 minutes, then it's not the car for you. The looks won't sway you, and it won't get easier to live with over time.

Check all of the normal things - acceleration and braking, steering feel, access, seat comfort, heater (a/c depending on where you live - not here right now), visibility, audio and connectivity, storage (both luggage room and cubbys/cupholders), USB and charging ports. NVH. Check the ride on various surfaces (giving whatever allowance you want to for the tires that are on the car you test).

The only things that an extended test drive won't tell you would be the costs of ownership, which others can legitimately help you with.
