Trying to fo a comparison on the venue seat height vs a subaru impreza hatch. Could someone measure from the outside ground to the top of the side seat bolster? Thanks

Thanks. The impreza hatch is only like 19.5" so it's a huge difference. Still trying to source a venue for my mom as the dealer sold the one I had a deposit on for more money than our deal. All the Hyundai dealers near me are marking up 2-5k on venues and my deal was at msrp which now we are waiting for the "next" one in April.

I haven't measured it, but the Venue is the first car I ever owned where you can actually jack up the seat height like a barber chair. I cranked it up until my hair was almost grazing the ceiling because I wanted the maximum viewing angle. So I guess the answer to your question is that it is not a single fixed value. It is adjustable by the user.

I had an Impreza. Great AWD system, but they are low to the Ground.
FYI - From Specs a 2022 Impreza Hatchback ground clearance is 5.1 inches while A 2002 Venue is 6.7 Inches.

My Little Blue Number lets me see the front edge of the hood at a medium adjustment i can't remember the last time I had a car like that. I'm six feet. Visibility is outstanding. Only disadvantage is that raising the height brings the seat forward a bit No problem with driving but getting out requires a bit of leg scrunching.
Physics would suggest that a high short car would lean in a corner, but Hyundai transcends physics.
