The compact SUV category is now the cash cow segment for mass-market automakers manufacturers, so much so that 2019 saw the reign of the compact car that has dominated sales in Canada for over two decades - that would be the Honda Civic - come to an end. And the trend isn't likely to slow down over the next few months, even though the coronavirus slowed the pace of vehicle sales for several weeks this spring.
The Best SUVs for 2020 & 2021 — The Top-Rated Small, Midsize, Large, Luxury SUVs and Crossovers SUVs are the most popular vehicles on the road today, and they come in all shapes and sizes.

10 Best Small Suvs 2017
1) Toyota RAV4
Toyota's steamroller continues to wreak havoc on th segment. In terms of sales, the RAV4 even relegated the Civic sedan to second place across all vehicle categories (excluding full-size pickups, a cash-cow bonanza unto themselves) last year. Who’d have thunk it?
The Japanese giant has built a solid reputation with its compact SUV, and it helps that the model is available in a variety of versions (gasoline, hybrid and plug-in hybrid, the just-launched RAV4 Prime). It would be very surprising if Toyota's SUV lost its title as the country's best-selling vehicle in 2020, despite the period of inactivity caused by this spring's lockdown.
In 2019, the RAV4 sold for 65,248 units in Canada, while in the U.S., the model recorded no fewer than 448,068 sales.

Compact Suv Comparison
of US News & World Report - Cars | These Crossovers Can Hold All of Your Cargo
One of the reasons why SUVs and crossovers have become so popular is because of their expansive cargo areas. While the majority of these vehicles have more cargo space than smaller hatchbacks and sedans, there are other factors in play. Shape, size, and other elements play a role in how much cargo an SUV can hold. Also, cargo space varies based on automakers, as some have found the perfect way to maximize interior space while others fall short.
To make this list of compact SUVs with the most cargo space, we looked at each model in our ranking by focusing on their maximum available cargo space. That means folding the rear seats down – the second row for the majority of vehicles and the third row in one case. If you don’t plan to fold the rear seats down, don’t worry – we’ll also cover how much cargo each SUV can hold with the rear seats in place.
Every compact SUV in this slideshow has a U.S. News overall score. Don’t be alarmed if you see a score in this article that doesn’t match with the vehicle’s individual review. We constantly update our reviews and scores as new information on the vehicle comes out.
Now, let’s take a look at the most spacious compact SUVs available on the market today.
