That's kind of heart of the article though:

> They’re responding to the definition, for regulatory purposes, of what a light-duty truck is,” Knittel told us. “If they can, they’ll make a small tweak to a vehicle and get it to be classified as a light truck, even though the vehicle itself hasn’t changed at all.”

A crossover is either a hatchback, a minivan, or the illegitimate child of those two.
