How Much Space Will you Need?
The first question that any SUV should ask themselves is, how much space will I need? You will more than likely want to go with a full size SUV if you have a larger family or plan on hauling lots of cargo frequently. On the other hand, if you have a smaller family and don’t plan on hauling a lot of cargo on a regular basis you would probably be fine with a compact crossover or midsize SUV.

Capability and Performance
Another thing that you will want to consider is how much capability and performance you will need. If you do a lot of off roading or live in an area with a lot of rain, snow or ice you may want four-wheel drive. Also, if you do a lot of towing or haul heavy cargo you may want to go with a larger, more powerful SUV over a smaller one.
