From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Toyota RAV4 was the worldwide best-selling compact crossover SUV and the best-selling SUV of any kind in 2020.[1]

Compact crossover SUV is an automobile classification used mainly in North America to describe a segment of crossover SUV, a type of sport utility vehicle, between subcompact crossover SUV and mid-size crossover SUV.

By late 2010s, the segment has emerged as the most popular automobile segment in several regions. For example, nearly 1 in every 4 cars sold in the United States in 2019 is a compact crossover, precisely at about 24.2 percent.[2]

The best-selling vehicle in the segment in 2020 was the Toyota RAV4, with 995,762 units sold globally. It is also the second best-selling automobile in the world after the Toyota Corolla.[3]

Terminology

[edit]

The term "compact crossover SUV" is most commonly used in the North America, where the "compact car" and "crossover" terms originated from.[4] It is also known as C-segment SUV[5] or C-SUV.[6] The naming of the segment also differ depending on the market. In several regions outside North America, the category may be known as "mid-size/medium crossover" or "mid-size/medium SUV",[7][8] which differs with the more common mid-size crossover SUV definition, which is a class above.

Characteristics

[edit]

Compact crossovers are usually based on the platform of a compact car (C-segment), while some models may be based on a mid-size car (D-segment) or an enlarged B-segment platform. The majority of models in the compact crossover category have two-row seating, while some of others offer three-row seating.[9] Vehicles in this segment typically has an exterior length ranging between 4,300 mm (169.3 in) and 4,700 mm (185.0 in).[10][11][7][12]

Due to its popularity and to cater customer needs, many manufacturers offer more than one compact crossover, usually offering them in slightly different sizes at different price points. American magazine Car and Driver stated "so many of these vehicles are crowding the marketplace, simply sorting through them can be a daunting task".[13]

History

[edit]

The first compact crossover was the 1980 AMC Eagle that was based on the compact-sized Concord line. Its four-wheel drive system was an almost unheard-of feature on regular passenger cars at the time and it came with full-time all-wheel drive, automatic transmission, power steering, power front disk brakes standard as well as numerous convenience and comfort options.[14] Later models included the 1994 Toyota RAV4,[15] 1995 Honda CR-V, 1997 Subaru Forester, 2000 Nissan X-Trail, 2000 Mazda Tribute, and the 2001 Ford Escape.

Between 2005 and 2010, the market share of compact crossovers in the US has increased from 6 percent to 11.2 percent.[28]

In 2014, for the first time ever, sales of compact crossovers have outpaced mid-size sedans in the United States.[29]

Europe

[edit]

In the European market, several analysts and agencies divided the segment into two, the smaller ones ("compact" or "C-SUV"), and the larger vehicles ("mid-size" or "D-SUV"), with the latter usually longer than 4,500 mm (177.2 in) with some models offering three-row seating. In 2021, the combined segments in Europe recorded 3,055,770 sales according to data from JATO Dynamics, representing 26 percent of the market.[30]

The Nissan Qashqai played a significant role of growing and popularising the segment. Introduced in 2006, at the time it was Nissan's only vehicle in the C-segment space in Europe since the company discontinued the Almera hatchback and saloon.[31] The vehicle was credited to start the trend for compact crossovers in Europe, with their advantage being high-riding and rugged-looking family cars, while not having the high running costs usually associated with off-roaders.[32] It led the segment since its introduction until 2019, when the Volkswagen Tiguan took its place.[33]

In 2016, two out of three vehicles sold in the segment were produced by Renault–Nissan, Volkswagen Group and Hyundai Motor Group.[34]
