I see this gets some attention on reddit every year or so, I have been doing my own survey and here is what I’ve found for modern cars
Big Vehicles - No console
- Hyundai Staria - Small gear shifter clear of knee box.
- Mercedes Sprinter
- Nissan Serena - Small gear shifter clear of knee box
- Suzuki Carry - Manual only, 2 seater cargo
- Honda Stepwgn shifter gets into knee box
- Toyota HIACE Some models no console, gear shifter does dig into knee box a little.
- Ford F150 Some configurations
Small Vehicles - No console
- Volkswagon Buzz KeiCar
- Suzuki Spacia - Kei-Car
- Daihatsu hijet Kei-Car
- Daihatsu canbus Kei-Car
Big Vehicles - Knee room
- Toyota Landcruiser 70 Has a very small console far away from knee box. Roomy.
- Subaru Forrester Has a annoying console, but gives more room then other console suvs, so 70% knee room
- Hyundai Ioniq 5 Console can be moved back credit
- Volvo xc30 console is retractable 75%, clear of the knee box. There is a floor console, it does poke into the ankles a little. Very wide seat
Small Vehicles - Knee Room
- Suzuki Swift Very small console, doesn’t block knees, but kinda pokes at ankles.
- Wuling AIR/Binguo EV - Very low console legs can go over, but slight risk of shifting gears
- Aion UT Floating half console for cup holding, leaving knee box clear.
What car without a console or lots of knee room do you know about?
Old Honda CRVs
That looks simply brilliant! So much space.
