That also depends on the momentum (weight ratio, impact speed angle, etc.) The lesser the weight, the worst off during impact - we've seen that too often in NHTSA crash tests.

Flipping depends entirely on geometry. SUVs have high suspension, have a lot of weight at their top, and have an overall higher height to width ratio. Also, their aerodynamics do not push as much down as on lower cars.
