Hi all,

just a quick question, could anyone tell me the tailgate opening height, reason, my wife is looking at Karoq for her new Motability car, at the moment we have a Seat Alahambra, which is far to big for us but has a tailgate height of 900mm, for her scooter, I have tried looking at the specs and cannot find this measurement, would love some help from you guys,I would love her to have my yeti,while I get to chose a car for myself,lol, but it may meant changing her scooter as well as the car, 

Hopefully someone can assist with your question. 

Best look into a showroom though.

?

Is the Kamiq not worth considering or is that just too small?

The Advance payments are low this month even on a 1.5 TSI DSG.   

I am waiting until the next quarter to see the prices and hope they stay low as i can not order til May.   

My preference would be a Scala but only if the price comes down.

 

Waiting times can be quite long so best check just what the supplying dealer might expect as a build and delivery even for a car Mobility is buying. 

 

PS

I had an Alhambra from Motability and used it like a van.

There was the tailgate height but then the floor height was reducing the space for what i was carrying.

Is that the size you need for the Scooter, and does it need a lift fitted?

 

Is it the Varioflex seats that are needed as well as enough hatch height?
