How long or large, in inches, is a 1/43 scale diecast car model?

I want to buy a die cast model of a certain car, but I do not know the exact size of a 1/43 scale car. I have a 1/18 scale, and would like to know how large a 1/43 would be. How small is it compared to a 1/43 scale?

1/43 is close to hot wheel size so that’s about 3 inches long or so. Hubby has a few 1/43 and they are a tad bit bigger than a hot wheel but not by much. They have a wider wheel base and are higher so they look larger over all.
