I’ve recently transitioned from a Porsche Boxter to considering an SUV due to a new addition to the family. This shift made me curious about vehicle heights, especially since SUVs appear quite tall compared to what I’m used to. Could you provide insights into the typical height range for most cars, including how they compare to SUVs and other vehicle types?
Hello Penny,
Congratulations on the new family member! Transitioning from a Porsche Boxter, known for its low profile at around 50 inches in height, to an SUV can indeed feel like a significant change. On average, cars vary in height, typically ranging from 60 to 72 inches (or five to six feet). Sedans and coupes like your Boxter sit on the lower end of this spectrum, while SUVs and trucks are generally at the higher end.
It’s also helpful to know that most standard garage doors are about seven feet high, accommodating even taller vehicles comfortably. However, always be vigilant for height restriction signs, especially when navigating under bridges, drive-thrus, or parking structures. This awareness will help ensure that your new, taller vehicle fits comfortably in various spaces without any hiccups.
If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to reach out. Safe driving!
