able to undertake long drives in comfort. Able to enter/leave car without being contortionist. Easy copes with my (very) large body frame. see full Acura TSX review |

2014 Cadillac ELR Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2014 | Both cars have comfortable front seats, but the ELR's provide more lateral support, at least with the $2,450 brown interior option (which adds power adjusters to their modestly sized side bolsters). Front seat access isn't among the ELR's strengths. As is often the case with coupes, the doors are long and heavy. see full Cadillac ELR review |
2014 Cadillac ELR Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Comment | |
The Volt's rear seat is pretty tight. The Cadillac ELR's is even tighter. At 5-9, I barely have enough space for my head and knees, and this when sitting behind someone my own size. Put someone taller in the front seat, and even pre-teens will have trouble squeezing into the back seat. This being a two-door, rear seat access is also dicey. The Tesla's rear seat is far roomier than either GM car's. Plus a rear-facing third row is optional. see full Cadillac ELR review |
