People driving heavy terrain in wilderness around here use small jeep like cars. Even US army used use them back in the day before monster trucks became a thing.
Edit: I meant small variants. Not the big size ones.
A jeep is definitely a SUV
A four door jeep is very much a SUV, a two door jeep less so.
I don't think I agree. Pretty sure a 2 door jeep is still a sport utility vehicle
I am not a jeep fan but I don't think I can put a 2 door YJ in the same category as say an escalade. We need to make trains and smaller cars cool again.
But it's not huge ass truck like vehicle. One is parked right next to mu European sized car and Jeep's smaller overall even if bit higher due to being offroad vehicle.
Edit: I mean small jeeps. Not their big variants.
I think point of critique of modern SUV usage is about their unnecessary big size and weight which leads to space wasting and higher fuel consumption which has its own negatives.
Depends on which model you're talking about.
