Like these vehicles, SUVs have lots of room, in addition to towing and off-roading capabilities. All these vehicles use a body-on-frame construction, where different bodies are attached onto different frames. Only vehicles that need lots of space and can go off-road are built like this nowadays.<\/p>\n<p>However, this did not stop SUVs from becoming popular with city folk around the world.

That is because crossovers have a unibody, where the body and frame are built together as a single structure. This makes the unibody a bit harder to make but they tend to be safer because of integrated crumple zones. It&#8217;s smaller size can also be beneficial to those living in the city.<\/p>\n<h2>Crossover or SUV, which is right for you?<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3969\" src=\"https:\/\/carro.co\/my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Crossovers-vs-SUVs-Whats-the-difference-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Crossover and SUV\" width=\"2560\" height=\"889\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging-crazy-rabbit.getcarsstaging.com\/my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Crossovers-vs-SUVs-Whats-the-difference-1-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/staging-crazy-rabbit.getcarsstaging.com\/my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Crossovers-vs-SUVs-Whats-the-difference-1-300x104.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging-crazy-rabbit.getcarsstaging.com\/my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Crossovers-vs-SUVs-Whats-the-difference-1-1024x356.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/staging-crazy-rabbit.getcarsstaging.com\/my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Crossovers-vs-SUVs-Whats-the-difference-1-768x267.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging-crazy-rabbit.getcarsstaging.com\/my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Crossovers-vs-SUVs-Whats-the-difference-1-1536x533.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/staging-crazy-rabbit.getcarsstaging.com\/my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Crossovers-vs-SUVs-Whats-the-difference-1-2048x711.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;re expecting to go off-road often or perhaps tow something behind you, then an SUV might be a good fit for you. If you want the benefits of an SUV but still be able to fit down those narrow city roads, a crossover might be the better choice. So if you have to choose between either a crossover or SUV, it is really about how you drive and where you want to go.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>If you enjoyed this article, maybe look at how <a href=\"https:\/\/carro.co\/my\/blog\/2022\/03\/02\/suv-tyres-a-hidden-cost\/\">SUV tyres<\/a> are a little different from sedan tyres.
