TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2016 Chevrolet Malibu
| 2016 Chevrolet Malibu Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| 2016 | Chevrolet's designers styled the new Malibu's instrument panel to appear low and out of the way, such that the front seat feels especially roomy and the view forward seems more open than in most competitors, including the Kia (the instrument panel in which seems significantly higher and more imposing). In the tested car, which had every option except the panoramic sunroof, headroom was so abundant I could have worn a fedora. The Kia Optima might have as much front headroom when similarly without a sunroof. The official specs, which often don't reflect real world differences, suggest it should have even more than the Malibu. But you cannot get a highly equipped Optima without the sunroof, as it's part of a large package on the SX and standard on the SX Limited. Though the Malibu's windshield is relatively large, you won't find outward visibility among the reasons to buy one. The Chevrolet's front pillars remain on the thick side, its instrument panel is considerably deeper than the Kia's, and the view to the sides and rear also could be more open. In the Optima, the view to the sides is more open but that to the rear is not. I did find the Cherolet's front seats more form-fitting and comfortable than the Optima's. The Kia's quilted seats aren't as cushy as they appear. see full Chevrolet Malibu review | |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan 100-horsepower 1.9L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
I am six feet tall and I have the driver's seat pushed back as far as it will go. If my legs were any longer I would need more room. For anybody six feet or shorter or who has short legs for their height, the car is perfectly fine. see full Saturn S-Series review |

I expected the rear seat room to be similar to the sedan since they are built on the same wheelbase - this is not the case. Swooping roof line - a 6+ footer (myself) cannot sit without head hitting headliner! see full Saturn S-Series review |
