Ageing parents are wanting to swap down from their relatively massive Kluger. They don't drive much (rural town so any trip covers some distance) but I'd like them to have as safe a car as possible.
Their basic wants:
- not a low or high car they have to sit down or climb into. Basically means it'll be a small SUV
- easy to park (some amount of self-parking preferred)
My wants for them:
- auto front emergency braking
- a HUD or a speedo that is higher to keep their eyes closer to the road
Otherwise standard safety stuff like side airbags and ESC.
Budget: call it in the vicinity of $30k. Either recent model (1-2yo) or new with a billion years of warranty.
If no such car exists with that budget just list the next cheapest option. I have a suspicion that it's more like 40k what I'm asking for.
Thanks!

Approx $30k starting price
They don't need a HUD or self-parking, as it's highly likely they'll complain if they press a button and hit the wrong setting ;)
This has a giant digital speedo
