2014 Chevrolet Cruze Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Comment | |
The Cruze's rear seat is among the tightest in a compact sedan, and the diesel engine doesn't affect this. Though rear seat headroom is abundant, adults will feel a bit cramped even behind a driver of average height. The Jetta's rear seat has a little less headroom but far more legroom. So the best option depends on whether your rear seat passengers have long legs or long torsos. see full Chevrolet Cruze review |

Passengers have complained that their legs get a little pinched in the rear seat. I tell them to stop being so tall. see full Subaru Legacy review |

Admittedly, the Legacy is a small-ish vehicle. My back seat passengers report being comfortable, but snug. see full Subaru Legacy review |
