2012 Another surprising strength for the new BMW 3-Series. There's more room in back than in competing cars, and the seat is comfortably positioned and shaped. see full BMW 3-Series review

The front passenger seat is cramped, especially on long journeys. My wife is smaller, so its fine for her, but Im an average sized male, about 5'11" and my left knee always aches after a while. see full Ford Focus review
