What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Chevrolet Cruze

2012 Chevrolet Cruze Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2013 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 1.8L I4
6-speed manual FWD
Rear seat legroom is a bit tight with the front seats fully back. see full Chevrolet Cruze review
2012 4dr Sedan turbocharged 138hp 1.4L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Unfortunately there is no leg room in the rear of the car when the front seats are a particular distant from the dashboard. So either all the people when riding in this car need to be small people like no more then 5 foot?! or you can only have two 6 foot people in it at a time. needs serious improvements there! see full Chevrolet Cruze review

2010 4dr Sedan 204-horsepower 2.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic RWD
Legroom felt narrow for passenger over tranny tunnel. see full Lexus IS review
2010 4dr Sedan 204-horsepower 2.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Lousey seats: uncomfortable and build is cheap and not conforming to human posture. But, seems last several years most cars have lousey, cheap and uncomfortable seats. see full Lexus IS review
2009 4dr Sedan 204-horsepower 2.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Cramped rear seat. Minimal knee and leg room when there is a front driver/passenger. Minimal room for the toddler when sitting in a car seat. Seats 2 small kids at best. see full Lexus IS review
2009 4dr Sedan 306-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic RWD
This is a small car. Interior seating is comfortable but tight. Unless the driver is very short, forget about the back seat. see full Lexus IS review
2009 4dr Sedan 306-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic RWD
Don't buy this car if you ever plan on carrying four adults. see full Lexus IS review

Yeah, the back is small but still big enough to handle for the poor rear seat passengers. see full Lexus IS review
