A tall order for drivers? No problem...

One wonderful aspect of the human race is how we differ from the next person. We are all unique individuals who come in different shape and sizes. Presenting an issue for designers and especially sectors such as car manufacturing, when designing new vehicles there is much more attention to detail that must be considered than we may first have imagined.

Not simply focusing on aesthetics or choice of materials, considerations have to be made as to the flexible aspect of a vehicle, how easily it can accommodate those, who perhaps, break the mould in some ways. Politely put, car makers have to ensure their cars offer a wide enough appeal to meet all drivers needs, from ample headroom and enough leg space for taller occupants, to adequate seating space for the more robust drivers and passengers alike.

For car companies to individually design vehicles to cover all types of drivers and occupants, would be completely unfeasible, almost impossible without great expense to the motorist and manufacturer. So the next best thing is to incorporate factors into different designs to appeal to the majority of drivers as well as a targeted audience too.

Its often difficult to produce a style of car that will undoubtedly appeal to every motorist, if the truth is to told, it simply isn't possible. Instead it is down to the design teams and their use of innovative ideas to make cockpits and car interiors as comfortable and spacious as to appeal to the tallest and widest customers looking for the perfect car.

There is am impressive array of vehicles available in the UK today in a wide range of leasing deal formats. Of these cars, there are many that can appeal to the taller driver.
