TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2017 Chevrolet Volt

2017 Chevrolet Volt Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearComment
The original Chevrolet Volt's cramped rear seat could only hold two people. In the second-generation Volt the hump for the battery pack has been lowered to permit a third person to straddle it. But they'd better be small, and even then they won't be comfortable. This fifth spot could be the least comfortable seating position in any four-door car. It's best considered for short-term emergency use. Even the Volt's outboard rear seat passengers better not be tall. The Volt's roof line sweeps dramatically downward, while the hatch extends unusually far forward. To squeeze rear seat passengers within this oddly configured space, Chevrolet has positioned the seat cushion very low and has located the rear passengers' heads beneath the hatch glass. The roof's rear cross-member produces an odd bulge in the headliner ahead of said heads. As is, both rear head room and rear knee room are in short supply and it is easy to bump one's noggin while getting into the rear seat. Adding insult to injury, the Volt's rear seat feels even tighter than it is because the rear side windows are small and the front seats largely block the view foward. Claustrophobes better sit up front. One somewhat bright spot: the Volt's rear seat cushion angles sharply upward to provide more thigh support than you'll find in the typical compact car (or the Prius) despite the seat's ultra-low butt pocket. The Prius's official interior dimensions might not differ much from the Volt's, but its rear seat passengers enjoy much more rear knee room (if slightly less rear headroom) and feel like they have far more room. see full Chevrolet Volt review

The rear seat room was the first attraction to the car and we ended up comparing it to larger cars. Adults are perfectly comfortable in the rear of this car, more so than larger cars. see full Nissan *CL55 AMG review

Comfortable & wide seating, almost as good as our newer 2008 CRV AWD, for both driver & passenger. Centre console area is small & could be better designed, especially cup holder & 12 volt power outlet. see full Nissan *CL55 AMG review

Excellent legrooms & headrests for 2 adult passengers, 3rd. person is fine for shorter trip as ours is mainly a solo driven commuter car most of the time. Seatback folds almost flat forward for larger packages (great for shopping at IKEA) see full Nissan *CL55 AMG review

The seats on this were really not nice. Cheap is the word. Poor shaping, no lumbar support. They have really improved this in the new 2012 sedan, at least. It only took them 5 years. see full Nissan *CL55 AMG review
