2016 Hyundai Veloster Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2015 | 3dr Hatch 132-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD |
The Veloster is setup like a sports car - stiff suspension, low riding height, and sport seats designed to keep you in place. What this car is not is comfortable. At all. There is almost no back support, and little coushining. On a long trip, it will be PAIN. On roads trampled on by dinosaurs, it will be PAIN. The interior accents also get in the way of resting your legs on anything, so you have to just deal with the space provided, which isn't much. This car is just big enough, and not a milimeter more. see full Hyundai Veloster review |

2007 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 235-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
The bench back seems kinds stiff after sitting in the captains chairs.That is one thing they could improve. see full Nissan Quest review |
2005 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
MOST COMFORTABLE VEHICLE FOR 7 PASSENGERS AND THE SKYVIEW MAKES A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE. NISSAN RELIABILITY OF THE 3.5L IS RESOUNDING.IF THEY CAN ONLY FIX THE ROTOR ISSUE IT WOULD BE THE BEST VAN ON THE MARKET see full Nissan Quest review |
