Rear seats seem very cramped for leg room. I've never used them, but have only ever dared to take adults on short trips in the back. Heated seats are available for the rear passengers. see full Audi A4 / S4 review

Depending on how tall your front passengers are, your rear passengers may not have any room to sit. Can fit 4 average sized adults, but it will be tight. see full Audi A4 / S4 review

The rear seat is adequate, but not large. Child seat fits fine, but my son can kick the back of the front seat. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2008 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
The rear seat is too small for adults on long trips (over an hour). And the rear seat can only hold 2 people even for short trips. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
 

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 BMW X3

2013 BMW X3 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearComment
2013 Thanks partly to power-adjustable side bolsters, the X3's optional sport seats are both supportive and comfortable. They're firm where you want them to be firm, yet (unlike those in the Audi and Mercedes-Benz) cushy where you want them to be cushy. The Volvo XC60's seats are also very comfortable, but can't quite match the BMW's lateral support. You sit substantially higher than in a BMW sedan, both relative to the ground and to the instrument panel. The windshield is more distant than in the original X3, making the current one seem considerably larger, but it remains more upright than in most recently designed crossovers. The forward visibility many people buy a crossover to get can be gotten here. Rear seat legroom increased by an inch with the 2011 redesign, and is now competitive. A couple of adults will fit, so there's no compelling functional reason to step up to the X5 unless you require tall people to be comfortable back there. see full BMW X3 review
