2013 Chevrolet Volt Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2014	4dr Hatch 149-horsepower Electric + Gas CVT FWD	Really comfortable heated bucket seats. see full Chevrolet Volt review

2013 Chevrolet Volt Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2014	4dr Hatch 149-horsepower Electric + Gas CVT FWD	Rear seat is adequate, but it is difficult to install or remove a child seat. The cushion is too firm to make this easy. see full Chevrolet Volt review
2014	4dr Hatch 149-horsepower Electric + Gas CVT FWD	The car is only a four seter so there is no room if you have five people and with the front seats back all the way it is a little tight. see full Chevrolet Volt review
2013	4dr Hatch 149-horsepower Electric + Gas CVT FWD	The rear seats have limited leg room. A forward facing child car seat (Safety 1st Air Protect) is fine but to install it rear facing would make the passenger seat almost unusable and being a 4 seat there is no option to install in the middle of the rear which i find allows in many cars a good way to keep everyone safe & comfortable. see full Chevrolet Volt review
2012	4dr Hatch 149-horsepower Electric + Gas CVT FWD	Front seats are semi-hard and covered in strange material. I could see people larger than myself having issues with them. see full Chevrolet Volt review
2012	4dr Hatch 149-horsepower Electric + Gas CVT FWD	No power seat in a $46k car?? Get real, Chevy. Once you get used to them, though, both front and rear seats are comfortable for up to an hour or so. Longer than that and I need different lower back support that it doesn't have. But they are heated which is nice and it's comfortable leather. A few tweaks and/or an optional chair & this would be a non-issue. see full Chevrolet Volt review

Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr Minivan, ext. 197-horsepower 3.8L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Stow-n-go seating is very uncomfortable. Rotating seats have no room to sit face to face with rear seat passengers. Base model forces one to get a center bench. see full Dodge Caravan / Grand Caravan review
