Mini MPVs?

Less obvious SUV's like a Honda HR-V?

Nissan Qashqai or Peugeot 307/308 are higher than normal.

Ford Fusion and C-Max have a higher driving position than the Fiesta and Focus they're respectively based on.

Yes, the C-Max is barely bigger than the ordinary Focus in terms of width and length, and is only 10cm taller, but has the higher seating position and is roomier inside than that minor difference might suggest. I've never driven the ordinary Focus, but the motoring press all said it was the most car like of the mini-MPV class when it was introduced.

My OH has an 02 Polo that has height adjustments on the seats. That inch or so makes a big difference to how you view the world/bonnet.
