2006 Chevrolet Cobalt Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	2dr Coupe 173-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD	The 6 way adjustable drivers seat really makes for a comfortable ride. Driving upwards of 700km a day for 4 days straight gave me a great chance to test this out, and I never once got stiff and sore. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2006	2dr Coupe 145-horsepower 2.2L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	It fits me perfectly. Actually, so does the rear, but I bought a coupe. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2006	2dr Coupe 171-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	seats are pretty comfortable and lots of leg room see full Chevrolet Cobalt review

2006 Chevrolet Cobalt Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 2.2L I4 5-speed manual FWD	The rear seat leg-room is not for adults. Only small kids can fit back there. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2007	2dr Coupe 148-horsepower 2.2L I4 5-speed manual FWD	In coupe form, the rear seats are cramped and and things can be somewhat claustrophobic in the back. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2007	2dr Coupe 148-horsepower 2.2L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	It is a sport compact car, so as one would expect, the rear seat is fairly difficult to get to, but once you are there, it is quite comfortable. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2006	2dr Coupe supercharged 205hp 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD	The front is great, but you have to be in a car seat or a small person to not mind the back seat. Little legroom, small seats. see full Chevrolet Cobalt review
2006	2dr Coupe 171-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	not much room in the back if the front passengers has their seats all the way back see full Chevrolet Cobalt review

2016 GMC Terrain Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2015	4dr SUV 301-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	The rear seat room is plentiful, and because rear seat can be slid forward and back, you can shift between needing more leg room and using more of the cargo area. We had traded in a 2015 Dodge Journey for the Terrain, because of safety concerns, but realized after we had it for awhile, the rear seat of the Journey was not able to go back far enough into the cargo area, and because of the bulky and high mounted head rests, you felt trapped. The Terrain does not have these issues and feels much more roomy and comfortable. The rear seats are supportive and not at all like some back seats that feel like they were an afterthought. see full GMC Terrain review
