Smaller cars with adjustable pedals?

I know the Malibu discontinued this a couple model years ago, but does anyone know of any cars smaller than the Impala/Taurus size that have adjustable pedals? My MIL would like a smaller car, but she sits too close to the steering wheel to be safe, and I'd love to be able to steer her towards one with adjustable pedals.

I have done a google search for cars with adjustable pedals, but all I get is the note that the Malibu discontinued it in 2008. Without going to every manufacturers' website and "building" cars, does anyone know of a list of current cars that have them?

She is wanting a brand new car, and Union made would be highly preferred/necessary. Thanks

MIL (mother-in law)? just never heard that one before, MILF now that one I've heard of.
The little people have custom adjustable footpedals so there is a company out there somewhere that makes them.

Well, you are from Kent, I'll cut you some slack! ;) Yes, MIL = Mother-in-Law. (So obviously, BIL = Brother-In-Law, FIL = Father, SIL = Sister)

The add-on is a possibility, but I'd love to have in the car from the get go. She can't test drive a car without them and know if she will like the car. She'll dislike everything, if she has to test drive it while on top of the steering wheel.

Also, those extentions still have to be moved out of the way if someone else wants to drive the car. Adjustable pedals are totally worth the option cost (whatever that may or may not be), since all you do is push a button. Not drilling holes in the floor of a brand new car, or squating/laying down to unhook them, everytime one of her daughters wants to drive her car. Which will be often.

SIL could also = Son-in-law.) but thanks for the explanation.

My W is 4'10 and drives a lifted Jeep Grand Cherokee, I can not even get my leg into the vehicle without putting the seat back, but the seat belts do fit her and She loves the ride.

Tech, yeah your google search got what I got, info that's a couple years old.

That list for 2009 cars is helpful, I'll have to start with those and see if they can get me to 2010 model cars that still have them. Thanks.
