Sitting up higher gives you much better visibility, which I've really noticed on the M25 in the dark. I can see the tail lights of the cars way ahead, whereas when I drive my wife's Fiesta I can't see as far ahead.

Compared to an X5, Q7, Ranger Rover etc... you're low down, but compared to the majority of UK saloon type cars from Audi, BMW, Vauxhall, Peugeot, you're high up.

Like others have said… I was sold on the test drive and felt instantly higher up Go grab a test drive.

I agree, good explanation. I have a 320i SE Coupe and definitely feel higher up in an X1 (which I have on order...yay!) but not as much as say an X3 or X5.
