Question

Dear Matt,

My question is regarding the passenger seat height of the different off-road(4x4)SUV models in the market. I've noticed that some aren't that much higher up than an average saloon car whilst others are. So is it possible to find a height comparison chart so I know exactly, as the car height is important to me.

Yours sincerely, Bima.

Answer

Dear Bima,

What an astute observation! No one actually publishes this information, but you can narrow things down in to ways:

1)  Learn to distinguish between 'soft-roaders' like Renault's Koleos and real 'off-roaders' like the Land Rover Discovery. Our magazine price guide separates these out as big and small 4x4s, into two different sections.

2) Use our stats section to identify the vehicle height as there is a relationship between the two. So the Discovery is 1887 mm tall whereas the Renault is only 1695 mm tall.

I hope that helps
