At the lower end of the price range, there’s the Kia Syros. It’s got a very spacious cabin and should accommodate you in reasonable comfort. It’s got a refined diesel engine that delivers reasonable power and good fuel economy.
At the upper end of the price range, you could look at the Mahindra XUV 7XO. It’s got an airy cabin and a high roof, so it should fit your requirements. However, many of us did find that the driver’s seat doesn’t go down as low as we’d like, and this is something you are advised to check for yourself. In terms of engine performance, the XUV 7XO’s 2.2-litre diesel unit is great, delivering ample power for highway drives.
If you are open to the MPV body style, the Kia Carens Clavis is also worth a look. It’s got a relatively high roof, which should put you at ease. Its diesel engine is also pleasant, offering fair performance with good refinement.
