Hi.

I have an opportunity to purchase a used Scion iQ. But, I'm kind of a big guy.

I've been reading recently that compact and even subcompact cars are becoming more accommodating to larger drivers.

I'm 6 feet tall and weigh about 325. Should I just forget the whole idea? Or, is this worth exploring?

The car is some distance from me. Otherwise, I would just go out there and try it on for size.

Thanks.

I'm not knocking the iQ. But, I know many a Big Guys your size and larger easily fit into the xB Gen1.

I used to own a 2006 xB. I am not a Big Guy but I had friends that are and they were Surprise
at the amount of room in the xB Gen1.

I think there are More xBs Available than iQs. So Check it Out. Worth a Look.

Hi Mr Luv

The iQ I'm considering is more in my price range and it's available.


Thanks for the reply.

Here are the iQ's Interior Dimensions:

You can use that to gauge vs other vehicles Interior Dimensions to see if that fits your needs.

You answered my question. The site you sent me to states that the 2014 iQ is lacking in headroom for tall drivers.

So, I'll let this one go.

I'll keep shopping.

Thank you so much for your help
