Do consider whether his height is in his legs or torso. I think that might make a difference. e.g., I am only 5'8, but have long legs, so I usually position the seat much further back than my 6' husband who has a longer torso......Make sure the seat adjustments allow the seat height to move up and down, not just back and forward and back tilt.

My 6’5” brother fits in boxy cars, such as Kia Soul, Nissan Cube.

One with a moonroof. Pro tip: The moonroof must be open in order to confer any benefit to the tall driver.

Most full size pick-up trucks will provide adequate head space.

My DS is 6’4” and drives a Nissan Altima.

I’m only 5’9” and my head touched the ceiling of a rav4 with a sunroof (I have an unusually long torso). I found the forester and CRV have the most headroom for midsize SUVs.

DH is 6”3 also no issue with the Highlander.

My brother in law is 6’5 he liked the Toyota Highlander.

We need a car for our kid to drive. He is 6’4” and his head touches the roof in our Subaru Crosstrek. We aren’t car people, and all I want is a car with all the safety features and that he fits in. Probably a small SUV? And I’d like to not spend more than I have to.

What would be at the top of your list for these needs?

We’d prefer used, as I have a visceral gag reflex when thinking of letting my 16 year old swan around in a new car, no matter how practical.
