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
Have you specced it with the panoramic roof Abhishek? That will give you 3cm additional height under the glass
...and even more additional height when it shatters!
God I hope not...
I'm 6' 2" and it was quite comfortable in the drivers seat when I tried it at Canary Wharf Car Expo.
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.

Collecting SD4 Prestige Auto 5 door with bits on the 15th Sept
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 cabin
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.
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.
