Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2010 | 4dr SUV 262-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed automatic FWD |
Plenty of room in the first and second rows. The third row will fit an adult, but is better for the kids. see full Ford Flex review |

My over 6 foot tall friends absolutely love my Flex because their knees never touch the backs of the front seats. The rear seat is like sitting in a stretch limo. With plenty of cup holders and storage for all to enjoy. see full Ford Flex review |

The second row seats have limo class legroom and are sofa comfy. The second row screams road trip. The third row seats are ample for cross town trips for adults (6ft folks will fit) and should be no problems for the smaller ones. see full Ford Flex review |

2010 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 355hp 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Took awhile to think of something that could be improved but a bit larger area in the front drivers footwell would be appreciated. That's about it. see full Ford Flex review |
2012 Toyota Camry Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2012 | 4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
Being 6' 3" it can be hard to find a car where I have sufficient legroom & headroom. In the Fusion Hybrid there was lots of space, even with a sunroof. There are also padded surfaces where my left knee rests against the door and where my right leg rests against the center console. The Camry Hybrid was not comfortable. The doors are hard plastic and there was no soft place to rest my knee. The center console was also hard plastic. see full Toyota Camry review |
2012 | 4dr Sedan 178-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
We will use this as a "road car" on longer trips so front seat comfort along with interior -and- trunk room is very good, better than Kia Optima considered. Two large adults comment rear seat also very comfortable. Front seat easier exit too. see full Toyota Camry review |

2013 | 0 | Nice ergonomic shape, but not enough padding. Leather seats feel decidedly firm after two months of ownership. Seat cushion length should be slightly longer for thigh support. see full Toyota Camry review |
2012 | 4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
The door sills are very high which made it tough for me to get my size 13 shoes up and over when sitting behind a front seat that is all the way back. The door sills in the Camry were lower so while there was no more rear seat room than in the Fusion is was possible to get my feet out more easily. see full Toyota Camry review |

You can see I'm really reaching here to find things that we didn't like about the Fusion Hybrid, but here's one more... There is a small step up in front of the front seats which made it hard to cross my legs like when traveling on road trips. see full Toyota Camry review |
