I know, but what called my attention is that the poster is European.

Part of my family lives in Austria, and what they consider a "small car" is more along the lines of a Volkswagen Golf, which is a little under 4 meters.

According to Wikipedia itself, the Impreza wold be a "Compact" (what North Americans consider a small car)

while the Golf would be a "subcompact" (what I thought Europeans considered a small car)

and the Maruti would be a "city car" (what we Uruguayans consider a small car)
