2018 Hyundai Kona Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	Hyundai packaged the Kona fairly efficiently, but only so much was possible given the crossover's compact exterior dimensions. At 5-9 I can barely sit behind someone else my height, my knees nearly touching the front seat back. Put taller people in the front seats, and the rear seat would become viable only for small adults and children. The Honda HR-V has a much roomier rear seat (but much less comfortable front seats, at least for me, as their headrests jut too far forward). Most other competitors fall between the two. One exception: the Mazda CX-3 has an even tighter rear seat than the Kona. For those who fit, the Kona's rear seat is mounted comfortably high off the floor. see full Hyundai Kona review

2009 Audi A3 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2009	4dr Hatch turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD	A lot less leg room when compared to the GTI, but the rear hatch space is bigger. see full Audi A3 review
2008	4dr Hatch turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD	Really just a 4 place vehicle...3 across in the rear is not comfortably possible. see full Audi A3 review
2008	4dr Hatch turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD	Slightly too close to each other in arm room. see full Audi A3 review
