2006 Audi TT Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2005	2dr Hatch turbocharged 225hp 1.8L I4 6-speed manual AWD	The rear seat is not designed for adults over 5 feet tall. Which means unless you have kids its just more storage space. see full Audi TT review

2011 Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr Hatch 148-horsepower 2.0L H4 CVT AWD	I've driven between the SF Bay Area and San Diego several times with no comfort issues. As a point of comparison, I am comfortable with long drives in a 2002 Honda Civic and I would like to burn the seats in a 2010 Hyundai Tucson. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review
2012	4dr Hatch 148-horsepower 2.0L H4 6-speed shiftable CVT AWD	I am 6'4" tall and this is one of the few compact cars I fit into easily with room to spare. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review
2012	4dr Hatch 148-horsepower 2.0L H4 6-speed shiftable CVT AWD	The rear seats actually have enough space to comfortably fit full size adults or child car seats. The doors open wide making ingress and egress easy. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review
2012	4dr Hatch 148-horsepower 2.0L H4 6-speed shiftable CVT AWD	Amongst small cars, this had quite comfortable rear seat room, which accommodated our car seat better than our previous Volkswagen Jetta. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review
2012	4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 2.0L H4 6-speed shiftable CVT AWD	Roomy inside, as well as pretty large greenhouse see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review

2011 Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr Hatch turbocharged 265hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD	Coming from both an MX-5 and Buick Century the cabin of the WRX is very spacious. There is good room for driver and passenger. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review
2012	4dr Hatch turbocharged 265hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD	I drove he car for a better part of 2 hours today. The seats were very comfortable all around in rush hour traffic on city and highway roads. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review
2012	4dr Hatch 148-horsepower 2.0L H4 6-speed shiftable CVT AWD	Seats only adjust two ways, and manual adjustments at that. They're adequate for short trips but uncomfortable if you have to sit for hours. I wish there was an option for multiple power adjustments with memory. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review
2011	4dr Hatch 170-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD	There is no lumbar support which makes it tough for drives over 2 hours. The seats could be better for its class. I think Subaru remedied this issue in the new body style, however. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review
