The old Cherokee was small, but I think calling it the same size as a Nissan Cube is a ~~stretch~~ squish.

Given the fact I parked next to one the other day, theyre about the same size. The Cube is a bit taller and the Cherokee is somewhat longer. Though most of the added length is due to the Engine compartment.

Well, TIL.

Still, I think the extra length of the Cherokee "counts" more than the extra height of the Cube, especially since a Cherokee actually intended to be used off-road (with 4x4, bigger tires, etc.) would be taller.

Not denying that, I was moreso just comparing a modern car to an old SUV.
