I don't think just because it's taller it automatically makes it worse.

It makes it get less mpg/range. Also Less "safe" as the higher center of gravity will mean taking emergency maneuvers "swerving to avoid collision" more difficult and the chance of rollover more likely. These are just facts.

And the reason I personally don't like hatchbacks is because I'm quite tall and I don't like sitting low as it feels uncomfortable to me and makes getting in and out of a car pain in the ass...

I'm 6'5 and understand where you're coming from but, your comfort is basically bad for the environment in a small minute way is my point. I'm sure it's still more efficient then 99% of cars in general by the sound of it though.
