2009 Audi Q7 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2008 | 4dr SUV 280-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
The middle seat of all the SUVs we looked at, had the most room to move furthest forward or backward to allow far rear seat passengers most accommodation. see full Audi Q7 review |
2012 Mini Countryman Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2011 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 181hp 1.6L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
The room was not bad, but the seat bottoms are too low and the road noise in the back seats was unbearable. see full Mini Countryman review |
