I'm 6'4" tall and 60 years old. I have a tough time getting in and out due to the low roof. see full Chevrolet Malibu review

2009 Nissan cube Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2010 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD
Unparalleled rear seat room and comfort in this car for passengers. Should be among the easier cars of this size to put a baby seat into the back, if we have children. Our (longer and lower) 2004 Sentra paled in comparison of back seat usability. see full Nissan cube review
2010 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD
Adults can sit there in comfort. see full Nissan cube review
2009 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD
SEATS ARE COMFY FOR LONG TRIPS. DO NOT BEAT THE HELL OUT OF YOU. see full Nissan cube review
