Hi all, as a tall driver, I’m frustrated with the move to SUV’s as they generally have reduced legroom.
What cars would people recommend for tall drivers like myself?
I currently have a 2016 Elantra which I bought new, which is tolerable, still not as much as my old Falcon. I currently plan to drive it, until it dies due to the lack of options in the market.
Unfortunately the new variant of the Elantra has this divider thing which severely restricts legroom. The Sonata in Australia is bigger on paper but in Australia we only get the sports variant which feels much smaller than my Elantra.
Apparently the model 3 is good for tall people but I don’t like Tesla and EV’s in general (although it may be my option of last resort).
Utes and ute based 4wd’s are out, they are tiny inside, as are other 4wd’s, foresters are average. Camrys are small, and last time I tried the Corolla it had more legroom, strange.
I read something online about Skoda Superbs, they are quite ugly but beggars can’t be choosers, I’ll give it a try.
Kicking myself I didn’t buy a Commodore, just before they stopped making them, Commodores were great re legroom, although buying a new Commodore may force me to forfeit my OzBargain membership.
Sounds like you need to walk around some showrooms and try out vehicles. Note most of them have seats that move backwards.
You'll fit absolutely fine in a G-wagon.
