Good and Bad - Toyota Yaris Forums

If my legs were 3 feet shorter, it would work fine. I am 5"11 and an average size. There is no position that is comfortable for me. Either the steering wheel is too far away or my knees are cramped up. When I am driving, My upper back does not even touch the back of the seat.

I do love the gas milage tho!!!

I'm 5'8" and experience the same issue.
The wheel is just not proportioned correctly in relation to the pedals. It took me a while to get accustomed to the reach. And now other vehicles that were fine before feel cramped.
