What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2017 Chevrolet SS

2017 Chevrolet SS Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2017	4dr Sedan 415-horsepower 6.2L V8 6-speed manual RWD	Rear seat is functional and roomy. I'm 6'4" and with the drivers seat in my preferred postion there is still a decent amount of legroom behind. Overall much better than the Charger/Challenger. see full Chevrolet SS review

2017	4dr Sedan 415-horsepower 6.2L V8 6-speed manual RWD	The front seat is just OK. Feels like a pretty flat bottom and fairly hard. Also, for a car with sporting pretentions there is surprisingly little side bolstering. see full Chevrolet SS review

	The first con is the obvious one, and a deal killer for many people. While the FR-S has a barely usable rear seat, the MX-5 Miata has none at all. see full Mazda MX-5 Miata review
