Only 4wd with decent rear passenger leg room. What's wrong with the other car companies , will the idiots ever learn. I jumped in the back of the latest model diesel territory , pathetic , absolutely no room. same with hyundai Santa fe, captiva, Kia. So if you are over 6foot get a prada or don't sit in the back.

It's called a Prado (yes, great trucks). And "Kai" is actually a Kia.
Besides, those rearmost seats are designed for kids, not NBA basketball players.

I havnt worked it out either, a medium size car has more leg room in the rear than most SUVs. Waste of space they are.

Yes, wellat least Toyoto and Audi have got it right. I also sat in the back of a $120000Range Rover recently and could not believe the lack of room for my head and legs. Oh I forgot the back seats are only designed for kids( yeh right)

I had a Mu years back, yea funny name and that but sitting in the back is elevated and with substantial leg room, especially for a SWB. Prada though, top vehicle

Agreed on that - we're looking for an occasional 7 seater and there doesn't seem to be anything that compares to a Prado.I don't know who designed the Escudos, but the middle seat has the centre seat belt latch right under your butt.As well as being hard as a rock.
I rode about 400km in the back of a VX Landcruiser in January and being 6ft tall it was no chore.Couldn't do that in most other 7 seaters that we've looked at.

Lol I've tried to find an angle to get something else pre 1970 into the garage but the good woman wants something a bit new-ish for a change.

A lot of SUVs raise the back seats, like Terranos for example. And MU stands for Mysterious Utility.which is still an odd name.as it's just a rebodied Bighorn.

And more of a wagon than a utility. unless that's the mystery

I have a Toyota Hilux Surf 1989 and it has more than enough room for your legs. Most leg room for a vehicle at the back would be a Isuzu MU [however unreliable trucks].

Yes , great "Trucks" as you say , fuel running costs may be ok purely due to a diesel (servicing may be a different story !) , but how more and more people drive these things after owning a car , I have no idea , is it also the "safety" aspect !, as they really aren't refined and feel so disconnected from the road.
