That's a shitty design. As a tall person is it hard to find a car that fits? I'm not trying to be a dick, I'm genuinely wondering.
It's hit or miss. There are cars that are look tiny on the outside but provide enough room even for people taller than me. Then there are large ones that seemingly offer enough space, but have things like backrests that are too short or have steering wheels that are too low.
The backrests are honestly the biggest problem, because they are shaped for the average person's back. When you're too tall, they put pressure on the wrong spots and cause back pain after a few hours. The tricky thing is that it's not immediately noticeable on a test drive, so you might be stuck with it after making the purchase.
Most cars that I've fit in were ones where you're driving in a sort of reclined position, because you can counter the short backrest by sliding down in the seat a little. Or 80s limos with a sofa-like feel.
Worst offender I've found to date is Peugeot, which my job so wisely chose for our company cars consistently. I think the CFO was in a lodge with the local Peugeot dealer or something.
Over time I've driven the 107, 207, and the 208, as well as I tried to fit in the EV versions of the 208 and 2008 recently when hunting for a second car. To date I've not found a Peugeot that I can comfortably get in and out of, while also fitting without hitting the roof. Ended up getting a Renault Zoe, which seems like the same size as a 208. But even without height adjustable seats I can still fit in it.
Also, fuck car designers who hide buttons under hidden beneath the wheel at all.
I'm fairly tall; just rented a Nissan Versa sedan and I almost fell uncomfortable extending the seat all the way back. Wouldn't want a child behind me, but it has surprising driver room for being a smaller sedan.
