TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2015 BMW 3-Series Gran Turismo

2015 BMW 3-Series Gran Turismo Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Comment
2014	Though the latest 3-Series has a much roomier back seat than its predecessors, many people still find it insufficient for their needs, and step up to a midsize sedan or wagon such as the 5-Series or E-Class. Well, most of the 3-Series Gran Turismo's wheelbase stretch was put towards rear seat legroom, bumping it from 35.0 to 37.9 inches. Though a larger car, the E-Class has nearly four inches less total legroom--barely more than the 3 wagon, in fact. (But with a more comfortably positioned rear seat than the 3 wagon.) What the specs don't tell you is that the 3 GT's rear seat cushion, since it is positioned much higher than that in the wagons, provides better thigh support and a much more open view forward. To top it off, the 3 GT's rear seat back reclines. Here again, though, the E-Class wagon has a trick bonus: a rear-facing third-row seat. Though there's not enough headroom back there for anyone over 5-4, the seat is well-padded. If you want to seat seven in a pinch, the E-Class wagon is your only option with a sedan-like driving position (aside from the Tesla Model S). Update: this review originally stated that the 3GT has much more shoulder room than the regular 3-Series, and about as much as the E-Class. But it seems that the initial specs were inaccurate. The latest specs suggest shoulder room in the 3GT is about the same as that in the regular 3-Series. Its interior does feel significantly roomier, though, so the initial specs could yet provide the more accurate set. see full BMW 3-Series Gran Turismo review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2006 Cadillac SRX

2006 Cadillac SRX Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	4dr SUV 320-horsepower 4.6L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	The car is very comfortable to ride in. My SRX has all the bells and whistles with electric seat controls. I often adjust the lumbar support to my needs depending on how bad my back is hurting that day. Heated seats also make for a very warm tush on a cold day. see full Cadillac SRX review
2006	4dr SUV 255-horsepower 3.6L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Rooms for me so room for friends to ride without being cramped see full Cadillac SRX review

2006 Cadillac SRX Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	4dr SUV 255-horsepower 3.6L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Much smaller compare to the R-class. The third row is a joke. see full Cadillac SRX review
2007	4dr SUV 320-horsepower 4.6L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	For how big the SRX looks, it's passenger space is somewhat craped. It's not terrible by any means, but it's not very roomy either. see full Cadillac SRX review
