2006 Chevrolet Impala / Monte Carlo Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2006	4dr Sedan 211-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	Interior room is outstanding. Trunk room is phenomenal, especially with flip and fold flat rear seat. see full Chevrolet Impala / Monte Carlo review
2005	4dr Sedan 180-horsepower 3.4L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	Rear seat had good room. Passengers had good leg room. Only adults over 6ft would touch the backs of the front seat with their legs. Draw back was the low roof. see full Chevrolet Impala / Monte Carlo review

2012 Mitsubishi i-MiEV Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Comment
2012	Adults won't have any room to spare in the i-MiEV's back seat, but they will fit. This counts as a strength for the same reason ride smoothness and exterior styling do. see full Mitsubishi i-MiEV review

2012 Mitsubishi i-MiEV Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	The front seats are very close together. And, even after adding an inch for the North American car, your shoulder is quite close to the B-pillar. Anything else with four doors is much roomier inside. see full Mitsubishi i-MiEV review

2012 Mitsubishi i-MiEV Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr Hatch 66-horsepower Electric 1-speed automatic RWD	Has a lot of interior room for the exterior size. It has more than enough legroom for my 12-13 year old kids. see full Mitsubishi i-MiEV review

2012 Mitsubishi i-MiEV Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr Hatch 66-horsepower Electric 1-speed automatic RWD	I am 5'11" and I need to have the seat fully back to be comfortable. Not suitable for persosns over 6' tall. see full Mitsubishi i-MiEV review
