What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Audi A4 / S4

2012 Audi A4 / S4 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr Sedan supercharged 333hp 3.0L V6
7-speed automated manual AWD		 Without question, the most comfortable car for long road trips that I've ever owned. Our family of four took a road trip of ~2000 miles, longest single-day drive was 11 hours, and never felt any fatigue or discomfort from the seating. Seats are firm and supportive but not harsh or uncomfortable. see full Audi A4 / S4 review

2012 4dr Sedan turbocharged 211hp 2.0L I4

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Volkswagen Passat

2014 Volkswagen Passat Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearComment
2015 The Passat's top strength remains a non-sporting attribute: never mind how the specs compare, the midsize Volkswagen has the roomiest interior in its class. Rear seat legroom seems limo-like compared to the merely adequate space inside the Mazda. Up front, there's also plenty of stretch-out space for heads, shoulders, and knees. The Passat's trunk is also among the largest, though in this area the Mazda comes up only a cubic foot short. see full Volkswagen Passat review
