Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2007 | 2dr Coupe turbocharged 300hp 3.0L I6 6-speed manual RWD |
More padding, slightly larger than e46 sport seats, fully adjustable side bolsters and the Dakota leather seems thicker and softer than the e-46 leather. see full BMW 3-Series review |

Heated, 8-way, with lumbar control: seems to have comfort covered for most drivers (wheel does not telescope). see full BMW 3-Series review |

My M3 is the only sports car I found that will comfortably fit a baby seat in the rear. :) see full BMW 3-Series review |

Too small & cramped. Fit and finish was much less desirable than my past 1998 5 series BMW. see full BMW 3-Series review |

The rear seats are comfortable, but due to the size of/shortness of the car there is not much legroom, a full size adult will have trouble getting their feet into the footwells. Mind you, the trunk space is immense for such a small car. see full BMW 3-Series review |

2018 Dodge Durango Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2018 | The SRT tweaks to the Durango include sport front bucket seats. These seats, with their large bolsters, will hold you in place through curves. Those who actually take the Durango SRT to the track will find that the seat's headrest leaves sufficient space for a helmet. But not everyone will find these seats comfortable. For me, the lumbar bulge felt too large even when minimized. In back, the Durango offers among the most comfortable second and third rows you'll find in any family hauler. It helps--a lot--that both rows are mounted higher off the floor than those in the average crossover. Among SUVs, only the Ford Expedition offers a more comfortable third-row seat. One weakness: the Durango can't hold three people in the second row as well as girthier competitors, and can't hold three people in the third row at all. Of course, opt for the second-row captain's chairs (as most buyers likely will) and the second-row seating will be limited to two people anyway. see full Dodge Durango review |
