Too Cold is correct. Just type in something like "New Beetle specs" and you can spot the ground clearance number usually within the first few returns. Do the same for whatever vehicle, you are interested in. Ground clearance is one of the standard specs, just like weight, track, etc.

I just found the one for the Beetle and then tried a few that were in the same class (all higher) then went with sports cars (Ferrari and Porsche) to find something lower. Just to show the extreme I tossed in the Highlander and the Rubicon. That last one also demonstrates the difference between an SUV and a real off road vehicle.
