The most recently conceptualized category is Micro-SUVs. As the name suggests, these are tiny. The main reason for this size of a car is to make it easy to live with. They’re light, zippy, and easy to drive in congested urban and suburban traffic. The biggest advantage that these bring, however, is the low cost of ownership for people who want a rugged-looking car.
Maruti Suzuki Ignis, Mahindra KUV100 and the most recently launched Tata Punch are all micro-SUVs. Being small though, they’re best suited to city roads and are only comfortable handing rough patches and undulations on these roads.

Just a little larger than micro-SUVs are Mini-SUVs. That is why they are often refered to as sub 4 meter SUVs. Larger cabin space, higher ground clearance and higher-spec engine configurations make for a peppier driving experience. These cars also come with a host of creature comforts. A better seating posture also makes sure the occupants stay comfortable for short road trips and over mild off-road surfaces. The list of safety features also increases.
