Found this and thought it's neat to see the dimensions of cars properly. Mostly because there's a larger influx of American pickups in my town and I'm not enjoying it one bit.
Was weird to see so many Dodge Rams in the Netherlands.

Front side: the 5008 looks smaller even though it's taller.
Rear side: the 5008 looks taller.
Very cool! I just did some car shopping and compiled a spreadsheet of the various dimensions of the cars we were considering. This would have been a perfect tool for us. It's kind of hard to really get a sense of the numbers otherwise. Looks like it doesn't have a way of visualizing interiors, unfortunately.
No Toyota Tacoma…probably the most popular truck in many US states. No Ram trucks. No Subaru WRX, nor BRZ. Really neat concept, but I wish it had more US vehicles.
The Ram is there and so is a WRX: https://www.carsized.com/en/cars/compare/subaru-impreza-2014... But you're right about the others --- this site seems to be Europe-focused.
Pretty cool. Looks like there are some scaling issues though: https://www.carsized.com/en/cars/compare/peugeot-5008-2017-s... Front side: the 5008 looks smaller even though it's taller. Rear side: the 5008 looks taller.
Isn’t this exactly the effect they are explaining in the FAQ? (Link at the bottom of the page). Depending on the curvature of the roof line, if you stand closer or further away, perspective will make one car or the other look taller.
> At over five meters, the Mercedes GL X166 is one of the largest SUVs. According to the German Transport Club, it is even bigger than a tank.
(Actually, "than a Panzer", and discussing what is a tank and what is not is the same w/ the Panzerwaffe in germany, e.g. a Marder, not a Leopard, here)
