What to buy ? a 4 cyl SUV ?
My sister lives in the San Fran Bay Area, CA. She has 2 children who are 16 and 14. So they are quite tall.
She is looking for a 4 cylinder SUV that will accomodate her kids comfortably in the rear seat. She does not need a 4x4 / all AWD.
She was told that she would have to buy 6 or 8 cyl SUVs if she wants more leg room at the back for her kids.
Are there any 4 Cyl SUVs that have the leg room at the rear seats for her children ?
Any suggestions ?
Thanks
Kalpana
Don't know about SUV backseats, but the new Nissan VERSA seats a 6'3''
240lbs person nicely
My SO has a 2007 Toyota RAV4 with a four cylinder engine. It has a very large back seat. It is essentially a Camry Station Wagon. My Sister has an Escape. It is a little smaller than the newer RAV4, but still has plenty of room in the back for children or even adults. It is available with a 4 cylinder engine. I owned a Saturn Vue with a four cylinder. The back seat was more than adequate for my 16 years old son (he is 6 foot tall). Best idea is for your Sister and her children to visit the car lots. I suspect the RAV4 will be the best choice since it is the larger of these three.
a guy at work has a honda element. his only complaint is that it's a little bit underpowered.
Toyota Highlander is quite roomy and is available with a 4 cyl engine.
