A lot less leg room when compared to the GTI, but the rear hatch space is bigger. see full Audi A3 review

Really just a 4 place vehicle...3 across in the rear is not comfortably possible. see full Audi A3 review

The back seat is too small for most adults. I hadn't thought about it much when I bought the car, but it became apparent. I'd take friends to lunch and they are uncomfortable.Even ifa personplans on sitting small children in the back, they grow and the useful life of the car is affected. I wish the Europeans would figure that out. see full Audi A3 review

Due to the position of the doors it is hard to get in and out of the car. see full Audi A3 review
 

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2018 Mazda CX-5

2018 Mazda CX-5 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearComment
According to the official specs, the Mazda CX-5 offers about a half-inch more rear legroom than the RDX. In reality, though, the Acura has an extra inch or so. While neither is cramped, you'll find significantly more rear seat legroom in a Honda CR-V, Subaru Forester, or Toyota RAV4. If you'll be putting three people in back, the Acura does have the advantage of two additional inches of shoulder room. The RDX's additional width might not be good for handling agility, but it is very good for a rear center passenger. see full Mazda CX-5 review
