Questions and answers
Which is the smallest SUV or crossover in the 1CARS catalog?
The LuAZ-969 (1971–1975), with 3,390 mm (133.5 in). Second is the Toyota Aygo with 3,700 mm.
How is this ranking compiled?
Each model appears once, with the shortest overall length quoted for any of its versions (or for its generation, when a version has no figure of its own).
Why is a model missing from the list?
A model is listed only when the 1CARS catalog has a confirmed figure for it. Models without an official figure stay out instead of getting an estimate, and the list grows as we add data. Concept cars, prototypes, one-offs and racing cars are not ranked; limited-run models are marked.
