How big are the interiors?

I have placed an order for a RRE 5dr Pure Auto Sd4 Firenze without actually seeing the car in flesh! I am 6' 5" tall and not too sure I will fit in comfortably in the car given its small dimensions. Any one who is as tall or taller who has tried out the Evoque? And what is your experience?

Thanks,

Abhishek

RE: How big are the interiors?

Have you specced it with the panoramic roof Abhishek? That will give you 3cm additional height under the glass

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

Panaromic sun-roof is standard in all variants in India. Unlike UK and other countries, where you can customize your RRE, we are offered pre-customized trims (Pure, Prestige & Dynamic) and we can only select the colors in these trims. Nothing else can be changed.

Hi there, I'm 6ft 2" and tried the five door with pan roof and I have to say that I wouldn't like it any smaller in the front. I appreciate that it depends a lot about how you set the seat but I had it on the lowest setting and it didn't leave a lot left. I'd really advise sitting in one.

Cheers Steve

RE: How big are the interiors?

I am 6' 4" and sat in a three door with panoramic roof and it was OK but nothing more. I know the 5 door will be absolutely fine. Sit in an FL2 (with a sunroof as it steals headroom), with the front seats in their lowest postion and lift your feet 1" off the floor and you will get about a 95% feel for the size of the cabinVery Happy

I'm in a similar postion at 6' 3" and wonder what the leg room in the 5door would be like for anyone sitting behind me, if its pretty minimal may have to reconsider if this is the right car for me.

RE: How big are the interiors?

I am 6 '1" and when I had the seat in my driving position, I could sit in the back, albeit my knees were touching the seat (5dr with panoramic roof). Also I tend to drive with my seat a bit closer to the steering wheel than the average driver of my height. So it would be a bit tight.

RE: How big are the interiors?

There is some hope that tall people fill fit in the RRE. Found this review by Autoweek in which the writer say's he is 6' 5".
