What is the Perfect Size SUV For You?

So, you’ve narrowed your vehicle search to an SUV but you don’t know where to go from there. Luckily, Coughlin Has You Covered. Sport Utility Vehicles (SUVs) and Crossovers have become the best-selling vehicles in the United States. With various shapes, sizes, and tiers to choose from, let’s find the SUV that fits you and your family’s needs the best. Let’s dive into some of the key features of each size.

Subcompact Crossovers

Subcompact Crossovers are becoming the fastest-growing market for vehicles. Examples of a Subcompact Crossover would be the Chevrolet Trax, Hyundai Kona, the Ford EcoSport, or the Jeep Renegade.

• When thinking of a Subcompact Crossover, you can think of a hatchback with a raised ride height. Oftentimes, a Subcompact Crossover has AWD, All-Wheel Drive, as an available option.
• With a Subcompact Crossover, you won’t receive an excess of cargo space and your vehicle won’t be able to handle serious off-road.

The Subcompact Crossover is perfect for someone who is looking for an affordable vehicle with great gas mileage and slightly more storage space.

Compact Crossovers

Compact Crossovers and SUVs, sometimes known as Small Crossovers, are one of the most popular markets for Sport Utility Vehicles. Examples of a Compact Crossover would be the Chevrolet Equinox, Kia Soul, the Ford Escape, or the Toyota RAV4.

• A Compact Crossover will offer you more space than a sedan with flexible cargo space and a higher ride height.
• In a Compact Crossover, you can expect to see gas mileage in the mid-twenties to mid-thirties. You can also expect to see AWD as an available option.

The Compact Crossover is a perfect fit for someone who is looking for flexible cargo space and a higher driving position.

Midsized SUVs

Midsized Crossovers and SUVs offer a great balance of space and size for families. Examples of a Midsized SUV would be the Ford Edge, the GMC Terrain, and the Nissan Murano.

• Midsized SUVs often come with the option to add a third row of seating. This is perfect for the family that is looking to seat 5 or more people at once.
• In a Midsized SUV, you will start to see some towing power. You can expect to see 3,500-5,000 lbs. of towing capacity based on the SUV you select.

A Midsized SUV is perfect for any growing family that needs to transport multiple kids at once. In a Midsized SUV, you will also see the option to add AWD.

Full-sized SUVs

A Full-Sized SUV is not for everyone. They are typically much larger than a Midsized SUV but can offer many more features that you might be looking for. Examples of a Full-sized SUV would be the Chevrolet Tahoe, the Ford Expedition, the Toyota Sequoia, or the Dodge Durango.

• A Full-sized SUV will offer a lot more power than a Midsized SUV. We will also see a much larger interior space and a much higher towing capacity based upon the specific vehicle.

The Full-sized SUV is perfect for someone who is looking for extra interior space and cargo room or for someone who is looking to haul larger trailers or boats.
