As an aside, the Mars rovers are much larger than this - we don't see them side-by-side with people for comparison very often. Curiosity is the size of a car - three metres on a side, two metres tall, and weighs the best part of a tonne.

Depends on the rover. Sojourner was tiny. Spirit and Opportunity were about this size.
