One of the best ways to narrow down the search for your next family-friendly vehicle is to take a look at Toyota SUVs by size. With nine options on the table, the Toyota lineup ranges from the compact Corolla Cross, with sedan-like driving, to truly massive, like the Sequoia and its 208.1-inch length. As you shop these models, you’ll likely pick one that’s the right size for your lifestyle. When you do, visit the Doral Toyota showroom to take it out for a test drive!
Our list of Toyota SUVs by size covers the nine sport-utility vehicles currently in production. These models range from compact, small SUVs (perfect for commuters wanting more versatility) to the larger options you might need for vacations or move-out days. Check out our list, click on the models below to learn more about a specific style, read through the Toyota SUV size chart, and then contact us with any other questions you might have.
The Corolla Cross is compact, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t ready to take on any adventure. This rugged model is nimble, with the shortest length of any of our Toyota SUVs, making it easy to find parking spaces in the city or drive around sharp corners. Drivers adore the spacious 42.9 inches of front legroom offered by the Corolla Cross, as well as the surprising cargo area behind the second row. This is the perfect option to try if you want to purchase your first sport-ute or need a commuter with a bit of extra room in the rear.
Perhaps our most legendary name, the RAV4, has remained one of the most popular cars in America for a reason. From its accessible length of 181 inches (fantastic for navigation) to its unbelievable hybrid MPG ratings, this small SUV feels like driving a sedan. However, its stunning maximum cargo space, accessible second-row legroom, and durable style place it firmly in the sport-utility market, ensuring you get the best of both worlds. Growing families can benefit from the versatile size of the RAV4, making it among the most popular choices on our list of Toyota SUV models by size.
You may know the Toyota brand for its incredible suite of hybrid engines, but did you know it also has a fully electric SUV? The Toyota bZ is between the Corolla Cross and RAV4 in size, with up to 35.3 inches of rear legroom, which is great for younger family members and adults alike. You can select between front-wheel and all-wheel drive to get your preferred mix of handling and all-electric range. It also comes with some of the most comprehensive luxury features in the Toyota lineup, such as a standard heated steering wheel and 64-color ambient lighting. If you’re thinking about entering the EV market, the bZ is an excellent choice.
While our suite of small sport-utes provides excellent versatility and a nimble driving experience, the midsize category of our Toyota SUV sizes is the optimal choice for families who plan to take a vacation, need some extra space for moving day, or find themselves growing quickly. The 4Runner, for example, is available in two- or three-row configurations, seating up to seven. The 4Runner also boats extra cargo capacity: 90.2 cubic feet when you fold the rear row down, so you can store anything you need for an upcoming camping trip. Add on the extra ground clearance of the 4Runner (up to 10.1 inches), and you have the perfect vehicle to revolutionize your next road trip.
Say you want midsize legroom, but don’t mind trading some cargo space for extra luxury. In comes the Toyota Crown Signia! This premium midsize vehicle starts with the XLE trim and can be upgraded to Limited. That means you get standard amenities like heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, wireless smartphone charging, and leather-trimmed seating. You will also receive the additional versatility you’d expect from an SUV. However, unlike our other midsize options, the Crown Signia is closer in rear-row legroom and cargo space to the RAV4.
The Highlander is the first of our eight-passenger vehicles (with a seven-seat configuration) and always comes with a third row. Growing families that might need seven or more seats for their younger kids should check out that third row. You can fold both rows to achieve a cargo capacity of up to 84.3 cubic feet – the largest of any of our three-row midsize SUVs, since the 4Runner reaches 84.1 cubic feet with a third row. As your crew gets larger, you’ll really appreciate the additional cargo space and the ability to fit more passengers in the extra seating of the Highlander.
The Land Cruiser is a somewhat unique model in our midsize selection, as it’s an off-road-focused vehicle. With a length of 193.8 inches and a maximum cargo capacity of 82.2 cubic feet, it is slightly less spacious than a model like the 4Runner. However, it more than compensates for fun-loving off-roading families through its running ground clearance of 8.3 inches, accessible approach angle of 31 degrees, and a commanding, timeless presence that is sure to turn heads as you glide down the road less traveled. When your plans take you far from the pavement, the Land Cruiser is here to make every trail count.
If you liked the spacious size of the Highlander, the Grand Highlander is sure to impress. As the first member of our full-size lineup, the Grand Highlander takes major steps to be more family-friendly as your kids grow into teenagers and young adults, with over 33 inches of third-row legroom to relax in. Your maximum cargo capacity also takes a big step forward, offering nearly 100 cubic feet of space once both the third and second rows are down. If you find yourself needing to fill six, seven, or eight seats consistently (and especially if you’re driving young adults around), you’ll want to consider a model as spacious and extraordinary as the Grand Highlander.
Our Toyota SUV comparison chart has two full-size choices, with the Sequoia being the larger of the two. At 208.1 inches, no model in the Toyota lineup provides as grandiose an impact as the Sequoia, featuring a boxy design, prominent grille, squared-off LED headlights, and a standard ground clearance of 8.6 inches. It also has a nearly truck-grade towing capacity of up to 9,500 pounds when properly equipped, showcasing its adventure-ready chassis and unbeatable spirit. Families who love road trips, camping, and exploring the wild love the load-leveling rear height-control air suspension, since it makes hitching easy and lets the Sequoia take on obstacles effortlessly.

You’ll also find close variants, like the gas and hybrid Corolla Cross models, or the plug-in hybrid RAV4, to further enhance your sense of choice as you explore an expansive inventory.
You won’t have to explore alone! If you’d like, our representatives will guide you through our Toyota SUVs by size and go through individual features. Then, they’ll join you on a test drive so you can get an on-demand explanation of all the upsides you can find in a RAV4, Highlander, Land Cruiser, and more.
Alternatively, if you prefer a lower-profile drive, we can also showcase several sedans, like the Camry or Crown, that you and your family will adore. Like our SUV lineup, our car options provide excellent rear-row legroom and comprehensive safety features, making them a consideration for garages that already have an sport-ute or want a nimble commuter.
