Compact sport utility vehicle












1998-2005 Suzuki Escudo/Vitara 3-door


Compact sport utility vehicle, also known as compact SUV, is a class of small sport utility vehicles that is larger than subcompact SUVs, but smaller than mid-size SUVs.


The 1982 Chevrolet S-10 Blazer and 1984 Ford Bronco II were considered compact-sized compared with the Chevrolet K5 Blazer, and Ford Bronco full-size 4x4s which they were sold alongside. However, a more direct link to the modern compact SUV is found in the 1988 Suzuki Vitara.[1][2] Another early compact SUV was the 1997 Isuzu VehiCROSS.



In markets such as India, they were originally a sub-segment of Utility Vehicles, but the smaller size versions have grown to become a dominant segment.[3]



Subcompact sport utility vehicles


A subcompact SUV, also called a mini SUV, is an SUV that is smaller than a compact SUV.


In Japan, SUVs under 3,400 mm (133.9 in)— such as the Mitsubishi Pajero Mini— are included in the kei car category and therefore attract lower taxes.

Volkswagen Group MQB platform

The Volkswagen Group MQB platform is the company's strategy for shared modular design construction of its transverse, front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout (optional front-engine, four-wheel-drive layout) automobiles. Volkswagen spent roughly $60bn [1] developing this new platform and the cars employing it. The platform underpins a wide range of cars from the supermini class to the mid size SUV class. MQB allows Volkswagen to assemble any of its cars based on this platform across all of its MQB ready factories. This allows the Volkswagen group flexibility to shift production as needed between its different factories. Beginning in 2012, Volkswagen Group marketed the strategy under the code name MQB , which stands for Modularer Querbaukasten , translating from German to "Modular Transversal Toolkit" or "Modular Transverse Matrix". [2] [3] MQB is one strategy within VW's overall MB (Modularer Baukasten or modular matrix) program which also includes th...
