I am tall (6'6") and fit in the front seats and am able to drive it. That is rare and good. Comfort is high for a GM product. see full Chevrolet TrailBlazer review

Wide bench seat with no humps. Middle passenger has good leg room where many other vehicles have a large hump to straddle. see full Ford Escape review

2012 4dr SUV 171-horsepower 2.5L I4
6-speed automatic FWD
It's a tad bit tight in the drivers seat. I have to postion the seat just right to avoid hitting my right knee on the center console, and I frequently hit the light switch when getting out. I'm only 5'9", so not that large of a person. see full Ford Escape review
