2013 Audi allroad Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Comment | |
Audi suggests that, despite the platform downgrade, the new allroad is pretty close in size to the old one because its cars have been growing with each redesign. Yet while the original allroad felt like a midsize car inside, the new one feels like a compact, especially in the back seat, where both shoulder room and legroom are down by a couple of inches. The average adult will fit, but without much room to spare. This said, the "midsize" Volvo XC70 provides a couple inches more shoulder room but no more leg room. see full Audi allroad review |

2005 | 4dr SUV 288-horsepower 5.0L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range |
Space is limited for adults in the back espically if the front passenger is tall. Seats are not bucket like the front so if driver takes a hard turn you go flying. see full Mercedes-Benz M-Class review |
