2006 Audi A4 / S4 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	4dr Wagon turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual AWD	Great when I can take my husband and teenagers up to the mountains for a ski trip without any major complaints. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2007	4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Excellent for cruising but lateral support is sorely lacking for cornering. Needs power & memory for the tilt/telescope steering wheel. Good view out of and around vehicle. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2006	4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Lots of room. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2005	4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 4.2L V8 6-speed manual AWD	These are the most comfortable and supportive seats I have ever sat in and this includes luxury cars like the Lincoln Town Car. The extendable thigh support is a bonus. see full Audi A4 / S4 review

2006 Audi A4 / S4 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	4dr Wagon turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	OK for kids, not really on for adults for a long journey. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2007	4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 7-speed shiftable CVT FWD	What room? What comfort? Tight and cramped and incredibly firm. Zero leg room for average height adults. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2007	2dr Convertible turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Center console protrudes into the leg area while gas pedal is far over to the right. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2007	2dr Convertible turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Rear seats are really only good for children and pets. A grown person could never sit back there. This is expected for a convertible though. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2007	4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Limited leg room, especially during ingress and egress. Hump bisects leg room. Seat cushion needs to be 1-2 inches higher. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2007	4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	small rear seat like the 3 series see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2006	4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Back seat leg room and head room is pretty small. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2006	4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual AWD	Sport seats were not provided to the US due to DOT crash testing regulations. This means the only seats available are the very flat and uncomfortable standard seats. Only the S4 has the Recaro option for the US. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2006	4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual AWD	For tall passengers, the front seats will need to be pushed back in order to provide front leg room. Width of the cockpit side-to-side is not substantial. see full Audi A4 / S4 review
2006	4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6 6-speed manual AWD	not a lot of rear seat leg room, esp if tall person in front seats see full Audi A4 / S4 review

2010	The rear seat is fairly comfortable--if you fit. Many compacts have roomier back seats. see full Ford Focus review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 Ford Focus

2011 Ford Focus Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2010	4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	I am ranking the driver's seat high in comfort even though 10 minutes is not enough to be sure. The seat has a lot of adjustability, including height. It feels like sitting on a platform rather than a hammock. The seat felt supportive without being hard. I can imagine it would allow for long distance travel in comfort. see full Ford Focus review
2010	4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Head room was great and the seat adjusted vertically with an easy to use lever. see full Ford Focus review

2011 Ford Focus Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr Hatch 160-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD	Driver seat cushion very uncomfortable after 30 minutes; feels like no cushion in seat see full Ford Focus review
2010	4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	It's tight in the back. Entry and egress are a bit cumbersome in particular for the feet. My shoe size is 9.5. see full Ford Focus review
2010	4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Like sitting on concrete. One minor positive was that the lumbar support was decent, but overall lacking in comfort. see full Ford Focus review
2010	4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	Air conditioner doesn't cool car. see full Ford Focus review
