1974 Jeep Cherokee

The Jeep Cherokee was produced from 1974 by AMC in Ohio,and was marketed in both the UK and Australia in right hand drive models.
The '74 Jeep Cherokee is one of the most significant ancestors of the sport utility vehicle, the gas-hungry innovation that would dominate the US market in the late 1990s through the first few years of the 21st century. Like later SUVs, the '74 Cherokee was marketed with an accent on rugged off-road capability.
These tough motors don't have much luxury inside, but they'll take you off-road with ease. Manual steering makes them hard to handle around the road, but with leaf-spring suspension, you'll find them remarkably precise in their response.

The Toyota RAV4

The Toyota RAV4 is a compact SUV built by Toyota ,the car was introduced in North America in 1996 to cater to consumers wanting a vehicle that had most of the benefits of SUVs, like increased cargo room, higher visibility, and the option of full-time four-wheel drive, along with the maneuverability and fuel economy of a smaller car.Its name stands for "Recreational Active Vehicle with 4-wheel drive," although not all RAV4s have four wheel drive, which is optional in some countries.

The RAV4 was a 2.0 L straight-4 producing 120 hp,both Front wheel drive and Four-wheel drive were available, and the RAV4 could be had with either a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission. In 1998, the RAV4 was slightly restyled on the front and rear fascias, and a soft-top two-door which was made available exclusively in the US market.

The Suzuki "mini" SUV

The Suzuki "Mini" SUV is a class of small sport utility vehicles with a length under 161.4 in. This class should not be confused with compact SUV, which refers to slightly larger vehicles, from 167.3 to 181.1 in.

Early mini SUVs were off-road vehicles built on body-on-frame chassis, such as the Jeep Wrangler and Suzuki Samurai. Earlier mini SUVs are still often used due to their off-road prowess and more manageable size on the trail.
However, current mini SUVs have followed a similar trend, usually having unibody construction and few off-road capabilities, falling into the crossover SUV category. They have substituted off-road cosmetic features, such as large black bumpers and slightly increased ground clearance.
Mini SUVs have become popular in some countries because of fashion trends: for example, wealthy young people buy them just to have a "different looking" car. An advantage over larger SUVs is the better fuel economy, which is very similar to subcompact cars / superminis.
