I've had my Stelvio Ti Sport for about a week and love it, with one exception: I can't find a comfortable driving position. I'm short -- about 5'4 -- and whilst I can find configurations that "work" I can't find something that is truly comfortable. The driving position in my previous car, a VW Golf GTI 2015, was perfect.
I'm having trouble pinpointing the exact problem, but some examples:
- If I move the seat forward enough to rest my left foot on the dead pedal my right leg is uncomfortably bent to the point where I can't easily use the brake/accelerator
- If I ignore the dead pedal and move the seat down and back enough so that the brake/accelerator usage is comfortable I can't see over the hood (and the steering wheel is too high for my liking as it doesn't adjust downwards enough)
I've taken to living with something in the middle at the moment, which works, but isn't especially comfortable. Are there any other short drivers out there with similar issues, or is it just me? Any tips on what worked for you?
