Cabin space that comfortably accommodates you and your passengers is important whether you and your crew are traveling short or long distances. If you are looking for a luxury SUV that caters to your height, consider the Cadillac Escalade. The luxury SUV was named to U.S. News & World Report’s list of the 15 Best Luxury Cars and SUVs for Tall People in 2021.

“For shorter people, most cars offer tons of head- and legroom, but if you are big-and-tall, many cars may seem cramped. Only certain vehicles are truly spacious for taller drivers,” according to U.S. News & World Report writer George Kennedy.

The 2021 Cadillac Escalade earned attention and a spot on the list thanks to its new look, spacious cabin, and cargo space of 121 cubic feet. You and your front passenger will appreciate the 42.3 inches of headroom and 44.5 inches of legroom.

“The Escalade also has three rows of adult-friendly seating, and the second-row seats offer plenty of head- and legroom for taller occupants,” adds Kennedy.
