2014 Cadillac ATS Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Comment | |
The latest 3-Series has a roomy, comfortable back seat. Cadillac didn't see this coming, and sized the ATS to compete with the previous-generation BMW. Consequently, the Cadillac's rear seat is considerably tighter than the BMW's or the Infiniti G37's, a little tighter than an A4's, about even with that in a C-Class, and roomier than that in a Lexus IS. If you want adults to be comfortable in back, the ATS isn't your car, but neither are most of the cars it competes with. see full Cadillac ATS review |
