Hardest part of being tall is actually to get in to the car. When you're in and you push the seat all the way back, it will have plenty of legroom.

6'3" and there's headroom for a helmet. Leg room is fine and my seat isn't quite all the way back (enough space to fit my sun shade behind it). The back "seats", well those are for stuff, not people.

Only issue I have with the seats is the sides could be just a touch wider at the shoulder. I'm thin, but I have fairly wide shoulders.

Speaking of height, what's the average height of each 4 person would be (max) for all of them to fit in the car? I'm talking reasonably fit, not like your thighs on your face kind of fit.

6'2", long legs, broad shoulders, and 235lbs. I could use maybe a hair more leg room for daily driving, one more notch on the seat maybe. Overall its plenty roomy though. I even have enough room with an XL motorcycle helmet on, yes I've got a big ass melon too. I'm used to driving smaller cars though, so I might not have the most accurate take.

I'm 6'2", 215lbs. I find it very comfortable. The seats are a bit snug for me, but I like it that way. I do have to run my seat all the way back, so no one is sitting back there.

I'm 5'8 and I fit fine. Kinda snug when I have my helmet on for track days though.

5'10", 240-5lbs, 36" waist but I gotta buy 38" pants cuz I overdid leg days in high school.

Car is still very roomy for me. I got dinky legs though (30 length, worn at the hip) so I have space for someone with skinny legs behind the seat. I sit very upright, popped up until I have 3-4in room above my hair (in case of bumps, street roads can hurt). Everyone I talked to thought I was too big for the car, but its perfect at the hips, and just a bit narrow at the hips. Figured the wings just need a break in.
