They aren't physically smaller, but they are lower to the ground. Because crossovers are built on car platforms, they have better handling but not ground clearance. (The Freestyle is built on Ford's steel D3 platform, which it shares with the Ford Five Hundred sedan.) This is fine for drivers who are just looking for a practical people-mover. But if you live in a part of the country with lots of snowfall, you may want to look elsewhere, even if the Freestyle does come with an optional all-wheel drive package.
