Best Cars For Tall People
1) Lincoln Navigator Cheyenne (6'11" / 211cm) This vehicle has good leg and head room, even with a sunroof. It has even more room than the similar Ford Excursion, probably because the seat it self has more adjustments to sit lower.
2) 2009 Ford Flex Cheyenne (6'11" / 211cm) I sat in the Ford Flex the other day, and it was pretty spacious. I think the Flex comes in a hybrid, not 100% sure though. Also, I think its fairly new so you aren't going to find too many used on the market.
3) Mini Cooper Cheyenne (6'11" / 211cm) Surprisingly roomy, even if I'd feel silly spider-legging my way out of the Mini Cooper. The only real issue I had with the Mini Cooper was a little bar that pushed against my leg when driving.
4) Scion xB Sack (6'8" / 203cm) My little box car that rocks far .
5) Ford Econoline E-350 Daniel M (6'7" / 201cm) Plenty of headroom in the front, very specious in the rear. A sure winner in case of a fender bender. But will not fit in a "standard car size" parking space.
6) FJ Cruiser Zen (6'6" / 198cm) Ladies, the FJ cruiser is a great vehicle for us long-legged females. Fellas, It has plenty of room for your big asses too, but you will look like a pansy driving it. It is just too cute for men. Ladies, I give it 5 stars :)
7) Toyota Tundra Lorne Herrema (6'6" / 198cm) Currently have a GMC Sierra 1500 regular cab and my knee is in pain. Took a toyota tundra extended cab and i have to say it was the fist time i have ever been comfortable driving.
8) GMC Yukon Brian Stillings (6'5" / 196cm) Glam Kam (6'1" / 185cm) Brian: My 1998 GMC Yukon has plenty of room. Kam: I love my 2005 Yukon, it provides plenty of leg room for my 6'1" self and it very comfortable. Unfortunately my 6'11' boyfriend is very cramped when we take my car. Fortunately for me, he has a Navigator that is nicer and more comfortable
9) VW Jetta Brian Stillings (6'5" / 196cm) I had a VW Jetta, I'm 6'5'' believe it or not, I had to scoot the seat FORWARD!?!?
10) Grand Prix GT Chris (6'3" / 190cm) I have a ton of room actually. It's quite nice knowing I have extra room as well.
11) Jeep SRT-8 Sam K (6'0" / 183cm) It is a gas guzzling, impractacle, low-riding, thug-wanna be ride.... and I LOVE IT! Oh, and the seat space is not bad either... for the people in the front anyways... haha Buckets seats with memory seating. So, if some shawty tries to move the seat up, you just hit the button to the program seat you are used to ;)
12) VW Golf Stina (6'0" / 183cm) I'm 6' even so that might make a difference for you. It's great on fuel and practicality
NR) Dodge Sprinter Cheyenne (6'11" / 211cm) I know its tall to look at, but has anyone out there actually driven it to see if it actually fits a taller person. I guess some people can even stand in the back. Let me know if you know anything about this vehicle and potential tallness factor.

Leaked: 2010 Toyota Prado Facelift | Motorward

2010 Ford Taurus

It does a bit of visual hocus pocus that makes a rather tall car appear low to the ground. The front end is punctuated by a billet-style grille (shades of the Ford F-Series), and the massive wheels are some of the most original and ...

The long rear over hang and smallish wheels for such a tall car make the thing look very top heavy. The Hatch looks just right. Joe McDiarmid on 30 June, 2009 at 7:25 am #. some people are just into the tiny sedan body style. ...

2002 Toyota Highlander Limited

It’s about as close to a tall car as you’re going to find these days. The carlike ride is due to an independent front and dual-link rear suspension with MacPherson struts at all corners. It’s similar to the average Camry’s suspension. ...

Wheels.ca - 2009 Nissan Sentra: Sedan not so jazzy but gets job <b>...</b>

And being a "tall" car, there's lots of headroom. The driver's seat height is adjustable with a lever, but you'll think you're pumping out a bilge tank, it takes so long to move. The lever that moves the seat forward and back is buried ...

AutoCritical » 2009 BMW X1 – Bullishly fresh

This creates a notion of connection between the upper and lower half of the vehicle, and it makes sense since it's a tall car. Overpowering that body side feature is the standard issue belt line that has been built up creating a tension ...

AutoCritical » 2009-2010 BMW X1 – Bullishly fresh

This creates a notion of connection between the upper and lower half of the vehicle, and it makes sense since it's a tall car. Comparison of concept sketch and actualized model. Note the difference amount of 'light' between the lower ...

Dodge Caliber - Car News, New Future Cars, Fast, Smart, Electric <b>...</b>

The Dodge is a tall car with a high ground clearance. This seems to compromise its handling. Body control is poor and hard acceleration can easily provoke torque steer - there is precious little feel through the unresponsive steering ...

My Mazda 2 Touge Test Drive (Review) - OzMazdaClub.com <b>...</b>

The body roll wasn't bad for such a tall car and it never really bothered me in the low to medium speed stuff. Only in the undulating faster speed corners does the soft dampening make the car a bit wallowy. ...
