The headrest position is horrible for long trips. Felt like my head was being pushed forward. see full Chevrolet Traverse review |
2016 Fiat 500 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2015 | 2dr Hatch turbocharged 160hp 1.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Rear seating is very cramped, and the ease of entry/exit is poor. Think of the rear seats as emergency seating- like a Porsche 911, and you get the idea. No one will want to travel across town in the rear seats. Forget a road trip entirely. see full Fiat 500 review |
2015 | 2dr Hatch 101-horsepower 1.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Roomy in front but narrow. With two people in front you're bound to rub shoulders or arms when using the arm rests. see full Fiat 500 review |
2015 | 2dr Hatch 101-horsepower 1.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
I would not put anyone on the rear seats. Maybe very short people for short distances. see full Fiat 500 review |
