What is the general length of a compact car?

[ClaraLee]

The length of a typical compact car generally ranges between 2m to 5m. Hatchbacks usually do not exceed 4m in length, while sedans typically do not exceed 4.2m. Below is an extended introduction: 1. Concept of car length: Car length refers to the distance between two vertical planes perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane, touching the outermost protruding points at the front and rear of the car. In other words, it is the distance from the foremost point of the car's front to the rearmost point of its tail. 2. Introduction to compact cars: Compact cars refer to vehicles with a total mass not exceeding 4500kg, seating no more than 9 people, and limited in dimensions as follows: length ≤6.0m, width ≤2.0m, height ≤2.5m. Examples include sedans, jeeps, micro cars, light passenger vehicles, light trucks, and small special-purpose vehicles, all falling under the compact car category. Their vehicle type code is C1.
