As a very tall woman, I thank you😅

I’m 6’5 270lb I currently drive a Volkswagon Atlas fully loaded and it’s very nice for me, I think I’ll be buying a fully loaded Ford Expedition next; although the suburban looks really spacious as well.

@sugu8403 how's that atlas on the leg room? Can you stretch all the way? I wish I can get the Tahoe but it's out of budget. I'm pushing for the pathfinder by the end of the month

@@dannyg1542 For legroom the Atlas is really good I have my chair moved back about 3/4 of the way and it’s very comfy especially with the lumbar controls, one con though is I have to duck to go into it because it’s not as tall as a full size like the Expedition, Suburban, Escalade etc. but the headroom once I’m inside is really nice! And the trunk space is massive with the third row down 😁

Why not do one for fat or big body people. Im sure it can help a lot of people. Though a segment for taller drivers may be a small segment. Im sure there is a much larger niche for big drivers

Sometimes can’t see the lights

I’m just shy of 6’5” and I can confirm

this is exactly my problem. you and i are probably around the same size. ive yet to sit in a palisade, but i used to own a 2015 sonata several years ago. 45.5 inches of legroom and 40 inches of front headroom. it was perfect for me. the new sonatas look alot smaller. i havent had a chance to sit in one though.... im in the market for a new car. id really prefer a sedan, but they just dont make them big enough these days. i may really need to look into the palisade.

6'4 and I was wondering if the palisade was big enough and future proof for my kids as passengers since they might be tall too.

How about Hyundai Santa fe 2024-2025? They have like 45 inch legroom

If you find a car with the second row on tracks without the 3rd row, I'm all ears. Haven't found anything yet.

I understand the leg room is not optimal in the Wrangler and someone else in the comments has pointed this out. I won't rehash my response to this previous comment but check it out and hopefully you'll have a better idea why it made the list.

The Wrangler is tricky. Because, yes, my right leg can bump into the steering wheel. However, my LEFT leg can be fully extended straight. I can't do that in any other vehicle other than a BMW 5 series (but that's a sedan). This was most important to me because folding my left leg causes it to push into the door panel on most every car. Ironically, short Wrangler users actually buy 'dead pedals' aftermarket and install because they struggle to have something to rest their left foot against. If you're a little claustrophobic, I can see how the dash sort of bumps out closer to your chest area.

Yes no way is a wrangler good for tall people. At least a 6’9” tall person

Shawn, which vehicles have you found fit you well? Thank you!

@@staceys1870 2018 Chevy Silverado and 2020 Kia Rio

@@OMEGATHENIETZCHIAN Thank you!!

I am 6’7” and bump mu head in potholes in my wrangler. Send it back to the dealership to custom modify the seats to add some headroom

I’ve responded to this feedback before, if you look at earlier comments you can find my response.

@@auto_exclusive I have to apologize for the sassy comment earlier. I shouldn't have said "do better". There are good recommendations in the video

@@jiveturkey9078 No problem, thanks for the reply!

I imagine it starts to become a whole different world for certain purchases when you get much pass 6 foot

I'm 6'8 and a few years back when I was car shopping when asked what I was looking for all I said was "something I can fit in" the salesperson was talking up a car saying it was perfect. I couldn't get my knees past the steering wheel 😄

Jeff, I need to raise my passenger's seat to accommodate a very short/elderly parent. How do I find these "pucks" and where do I go to install them? I do not want to install anything on my own. Also, I want it done correctly so nothing regarding safety is compromised. Thank you.

Short people are envious of tall people, but being tall just sucks, because the world just isn't made for you.

I've definitely caught more flack on featuring the Wrangler on this list than anything else but---just like anyone else--some tall people like off-roading and/or the features that vehicles like the Wrangler has. Obviously, it's not the optimal vehicle for tall people and clearly not a strong option for the very tall but it seemed appropriate to include an off-road oriented SUV.

The headroom and legroom data can be found on Jeep's website: www.jeep.com/wrangler/specs.html. This video is not necessarily about the absolute best SUVs for tall people as generally the largest SUVs tend to have the most head and legroom...wouldn't be a very useful video to just list the largest (not to mention most expensive) SUVs on the market. Instead, the goal was to list the best SUVs of varying sizes, prices, purposes (ie. offroad) and styles as tall people--just like anyone else--have budgetary concerns, have desires to use SUVs offroad, prefer certain styles, etc. I have a family member that is 6' 5" and I know full well the biggest SUVs tend to work best (for instance, the Chevy Suburban) but the variety of SUVs listed in this video--based on the combination of legroom and headroom specs--are ones that may best appeal to tall people more than others..not that they are absolutely ideal Everyone is unique and only once you sit in a vehicle can anyone truly tell if it's right for them. And let's not forget, tall is a broad category...people that are 6'1" may easily view a vehicle differently than someone that is 6' 5".

I’ts not about the data configuration, more about how deep it s the footwell and flexibility of drivers seat, also the egress and ingress.

If you're looking for an SUV I'm not sure. But I bought a 2022 Kia K5 last July and it is by far the ROOMIEST car I've ever driven. I can drive with my legs and arms fully extended and I'm 6"3. Fantastic car too. I highly recommend it.

I bought the Subaru Ascent in January and by far its been the roomiest vehicle I've owned.

Thanks Kyle and Adam I appreciate your help.. I still haven’t pulled the trigger so this is good information for me

I'm 6'4 foot and I think the toyota highlander or the RAV 4 might workout for you it's better than sitting in a small Sedan with lesser legroom.

im replying to this a year later. did you end up purchasing a new vehicle? if so, what did you get? im in the market for a new car and you and I are the same height

Thank you!

I appreciate the feedback. As I mentioned in a response to a previous comment, the purpose behind the video was not to outline the absolute Best SUVs for Tall People as that would almost entirely comprise of the largest SUVs and, therefore, would ignore the needs of many viewers who--just like anyone else--have a variety of wants, needs and budgets. Instead, the goal of this video was to provide an assortment of the Best SUVs for tall people that included different price ranges, uses (ie. off-road), sizes, etc. Yes, that means some more optimal SUVs (again, generally larger SUVs) were left off and some SUVs that are not exactly optimal (ie. the Wrangler) were featured so that options for all types of would-be buyers were presented. In hindsight, I probably should have outlined this in the video because I understand where yours (and others) feedback is coming from.

Many people hate 4Runner for being cramped being a body on frame SUV.

Toyota 2Runner and in general Toyota is terrible for tall people. dont bring it up

No. I’m 6’10 with a large frame and even x7 is small for me.

Understand what you are saying and have discussed this before in previous replies. The idea was that tall people, just like anyone else, also sometimes want an off-road oriented vehicle and among those, the Wrangler would be one to consider for a tall person-not that it’s ideal. Same can be said about other vehicles on this list, i tried showcasing different vehicle classes and price points so thst it wasnt just the largest SUVs on the market which generally work best for tall people..

Since it's been awhile and sometime comments can get buried, I'll repost my response to a similar criticism published months ago: This video is not necessarily about the absolute best SUVs for tall people as generally the largest SUVs tend to have the most head and legroom...wouldn't be a very useful video to just list the largest (not to mention most expensive) SUVs on the market. Instead, the goal was to list the best SUVs of varying sizes, prices, purposes (ie. offroad) and styles as tall people--just like anyone else--have budgetary concerns, have desires to use SUVs offroad, prefer certain styles, etc. I have a family member that is 6' 5" and I know full well the biggest SUVs tend to work best (for instance, the Chevy Suburban) but the variety of SUVs listed in this video--based on the combination of legroom and headroom specs--are ones that may best appeal to tall people more than others..not that they are absolutely ideal Everyone is unique (some tall people have long legs while others have long torsos, for instance) and only once you sit in a vehicle can anyone truly tell if it's right for them. And let's not forget, tall is a broad category...people that are 6'1" may easily view a vehicle differently than someone that is 6' 5".

​@@auto_exclusive WTF?!? "This video is not necessarily about the absolute best SUVs for tall people as generally the largest SUVs tend to have the most head and legroom...wouldn't be a very useful video to just list the largest (not to mention most expensive) SUVs on the market. " You sure picked an odd, now-clearly-meant-to-be-click-bait-y title, then didn't you: "Best 8 SUVs for Tall People." GTFO with this BS.

Yeah, it is necessary and I know from people in my life that as people get taller, the number of vehicles that will work quickly diminish.

Think of the video as being for “taller” people….not a specific height because even two people of the same height can have unique body features (longer legs or longer torso) and, therefore, may find the same vehicle more or less suitable for them. The purpose of this video is to point out some vehicles that MAY be a good option for taller people…essentially a short list of possible vehicles to start with. Hope that helps.
