What small/medium size automatics are reliable and economic with a higher seating position?
I'm interested in a used, reliable and economic small-ish/medium automatic car. I also need for the seating to be a little bit elevated, like the Honda Jazz. I've heard everywhere, that Japanese/Korean cars are best when it come to automatics. What do you recommend?

A 2011-2015 Honda Jazz 1.4 i-VTEC CVT-7 is fine, but the seat is not very elevated. You'll sit a bit higher in a Hyundai ix20 or KIA Venga auto.
