Definition:
SUV is short for Sport Utility Vehicle. This is a type of vehicle that shaped somewhat like a station wagon but more like the size of a mini-van.
Most SUVs try to portray some sort of offroading capability and many actually design Sport Utility Vehicles to be used for offroading including Jeep Liberty, Toyota FJ, Ford Bronco and many others.
Some SUVs are designed on larger frames to give them the towing capacity of a 1/2 ton pickup truck while still enabling them to carry more passengers than a 1/2 ton pickup truck.
Also Known As: sport utility vehicle, minivan,
