2014 BMW 2-Series Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2014 | 2dr Coupe turbocharged 320hp 3.0L I6 8-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
The driving position feels natural. Buttons and dials are easily accessible, and everything's adjustable if you need to. After a few-hour drive down highway 1, I noticed that my back didn't hurt like it does on most other cars. The seats aren't that soft to the touch, and are quite supportive in cornering, but they are very well-sculpted. Who knew a congenital back defect could be so useful in car evaluation? see full BMW 2-Series review |

The Edge rear seat legroom is great. There are few crossovers with such good rear seat comfort and legroom. I did not want the third row, the lack of third row helps with rear legroom. see full Ford Edge review |
