Good comparison. I've been worried that the R1S will be too big, but this looks to be "just right." Thanks for posting.

The R1S is close in width and length to a Q7, but quite a bit taller with massively more cargo volume.

I saw a R1S a couple of days ago. It looked good, somewhat a little smaller than a Suburban.

There is a weird optical illusion here. The back of the Suburban is directly in front of the camera and several feet closer, so it would make sense it looks wider. Based on numbers the width is almost identical (Suburban 78.8 without mirrors, R1T/S 79 without mirrors).

Probably the biggest difference in dimensions of the R1T (and R1T) to older utility vehicles like this Suburban will be width.

A more interesting comparison will be the Hummer next to this Suburban or other SUVs from the same time period.

Did you mean length? Width is similar, apparently.

I meant width but you're right, it's similar. The Suburban is 78.8" and the R1S is 79"
