YearComment
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

2010 Mazda CX-9 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2011 4dr SUV 273-horsepower 3.7L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Seat hugs in the right places without being cumbersome. Headrest position is much better than the midsize GM vehicles I test-drove (Chevy Traverse, GMC Acadia, Buick Enclave). see full Mazda CX-9 review
2009 4dr SUV 273-horsepower 3.7L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Easy access to third row, good leg room in second and third row. see full Mazda CX-9 review
2009 4dr SUV 273-horsepower 3.7L V6
