2010 Acura TL Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2010 | 4dr Sedan 305-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
The front seats in this automobile are trimmed in supple leather yet are nice and firm in the European style for all day comfort. I look forward to some longer trips once spring arrives. see full Acura TL review |

2015 Ford Fiesta Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Comment | |
Just as the Ford Fiesta has some clear strengths, it also has some clear weaknesses. Its rear seat, though comfortably positioned well off the floor, is the tightest in the segment. At 5-9, I can barely squeeze behind myself. The Fit's rear seat is far roomier. see full Ford Fiesta review |
