Trucks with the Most Legroom for 2024
These are the trucks with the most legroom based on iSeeCars' analysis of each vehicle’s rear legroom measurements.
The midsize truck with the most legroom is the Jeep Gladiator (38.3 inches) and the full-size truck with the most legroom is the Ram 1500 (44.8 inches). Topping the list for the small and compact trucks with the most legroom is the Ford Maverick (36.9 inches), while the Ford F-350 Super Duty ranks first for the heavy duty trucks with the most legroom (43.6 inches).
iSeeCars has identified the pickup trucks with the most legroom and ranked them below. The trucks are separated into each of the major size categories and ranked by back seat legroom in crew cab configuration. Our research confirmed that high second-row legroom is a predictor of excellent front seat legroom, headroom, and overall interior space, making these the best trucks for tall drivers. Each truck listed below includes not only driver’s seat and back seat inches of legroom, but also horsepower, fuel economy, and new and used car pricing information.
The good news is that of all vehicle types trucks tend to be the best cars for tall people. But whether you’re buying a truck, full-size SUV, or sporty coupe, taller drivers should still test drive a vehicle before buying. Everything from steering wheel placement to front headroom (particularly on trucks with a sunroof) to power-adjustable pedals plays a role in driver comfort, and needs to be tested in person.
Buyers should also consider that while full-size trucks like the Chevy Silverado and Ram 1500 may offer the greatest amount of legroom, midsize trucks have grown substantially in size over the past two decades and are also quite roomy today. The latest versions of the Ford Ranger, Nissan Frontier, and Toyota Tacoma feature large cabins while being easier to drive and delivering high mpg ratings than their full-size counterparts.
Smaller trucks, such as the Ford Maverick and Hyundai Santa Cruz, have smaller cabins and may be too tight for tall drivers. But if they can meet your headroom and legroom needs they will provide the most car-like ride and handling experience, along with the highest fuel efficiency of any modern truck.
Seeking the roomiest trucks that also best meet your needs means identifying not only the trucks with the most legroom but also the best overall models. Each vehicle listed below includes ratings for safety, reliability and resale value.
How We Rank These Cars
The Cars with the Most Legroom rank vehicles by their rear legroom measurements.
iSeeCars analyzed the interior legroom dimensions of each vehicle and ranked vehicles by their rear legroom measurements. In the event there is a tie, we use iSeeCars proprietary rating of the overall quality of the car (iSeeCars Score) to break the tie.
The overall iSeeCars Score is an analysis of three factors: reliability, resale value and safety. It is calculated based on the latest research and analysis by our data science team. The data analysis comes from over 12 million new and used vehicles in our Longest-Lasting Cars and 5-Year Depreciation Studies, combined with NHTSA and IIHS Safety Ratings.
Vehicles are scored in three categories:
Reliability
The reliability score represents an analysis of iSeeCars' proprietary research on the longest-lasting vehicles.
Value Retention
The value retention score is based on our data science team's statistical analysis and prediction of 5-year depreciation from MSRP to determine which cars hold their value best, using US Bureau of Labor Statistics data to adjust for inflation.
Safety
The safety score is calculated based on the last five years of crash test ratings from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and incorporates the latest Top Safety Pick information from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).
