What are Crossover cars?

Due to their size, many car buyers ask themselves: What are crossover vehicles? This type of car is technically a cross between a family saloon and an SUV, and it is also known as a Crossover Utility Vehicle (CUV).

They are becoming very popular because of their adaptability, as these cars offer the practicality of a van and the unlimited performance of a utility vehicle. The SEAT crossovers are designed for maximum versatility and performance on any surface and under any conditions.

What is the difference between a crossover and an SUV?

Generally, an SUV is built on a truck chassis, whereas a crossover is like a common car, but bigger. Both usually have the same size, therefore it’s easy to confuse them. SUV cars are made to drive off-road thanks to a 4x4 four-wheel-drive, while some crossovers also feature the 4WD (4-wheel drive) technology, but their primary purpose is to drive on usual roads and cities.

While most SUVs are like trucks in the inside, crossovers are essentially tall wagons with a more powerful look, larger than a family saloon but smaller than a large SUV like an Ateca or Tarraco.
