The rear seats are a little snug, but bareable. However, if someone is pretty tall they might bump their head on the ceiling. see full Cadillac CTS review |

Seats were horrible. Could not find a comfortable position plus the center console along with the key fob hanging from the ignition contacted my leg. My 06 Grand Prix was much more comfortable. see full Cadillac CTS review |

Shorter wheelbase can lead to things being a little cramped in the rear. Also, no rear-seat vents for AC/heater! For shame, Cadillac... Audi figured this out long ago. see full Cadillac CTS review |

First, I am a tall person and the seatbelt height adjustment does not go high enough, so if an accident should occur I believe that the shoulder belt will slip off. Also, the seats could be built more comfortable, more sporty. see full Hyundai Genesis review |
