TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 BMW 1-Series
| 2013 BMW 1-Series Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| 2013 | You simply can't find a much better driver seat for a combination of long-distance comfort and support during aggressive cornering than the one in the BMW 135is. The seat feels firm and substantial, but with enough padding that church pew metaphors will remain far from your mind. The side bolsters are power-adjustable, so they can be snug when you want them to be snug, but not otherwise. Neither of the other cars has adjustable bolsters, and the Z's are too widely spaced for my average build. The BMW's seats also felt the most comfortable to me. see full BMW 1-Series review | |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Very comfortable, firm seating,even after very long drives. The combination of lumbar support and heat leaves me refreshed after eight- and nine-hour drives. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 507-horsepower 6.2L V8 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Lots of room and has adjustments on multicontour seats. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
I could fall asleep in this thing. Great seat heaters and adjustability. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 302-horsepower 5.0L V8 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
The seat room for front passengers is excellent, and there is still enough room for rear passengers. We had an Acura TL before, and it was far less roomy than the E500. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review |
