Small SUV with high driver position?

[Anonymous]

My Rav4 gets me up pretty high. I’m 5’2 and put the seat as high as it’ll go. And I like to sit far back.

DH sits low and much closer to the wheel. It’s nice to save the separate seat settings.

I test drove a Lexus, and a few other cars, and they all had tiny windows. I hate it. What the heck is what this trend.

Yes, and I don’t care what kind of cameras a vehicle has for visibility, I still want big windows!

Even my 2017 ford edge.

Yes but a lot of cars don't raise up high enough for short people.

I am short, hence the answer. Would make no sense for a 6'0 woman to need to raise the seat.

I would look at the Volvo XC60

This. I'm sitting in a hole in my Acura RDX (2017, maybe newer models are different). The seat barely raises up but we bought it certified pre-owned during the pandemic because it was the only thing on a lot. Can't wait to get rid of it. I miss my Audi Q5 where I was high up!

Another small woman with a forester, here. I love it.

This is what I want—big windows, esp in the back. So far, leaning toward the Honda. I’ve liked Ford before but can’t get past the dial to shift.
