I have a bad leg ,the high seat ,wide door opening and extra leg make it easy for me to swing my leg in and out. It has more room than lots of other cars. see full Chrysler PT Cruiser review

2006 2dr Convertible turbocharged 230hp 2.4L I4
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD
I have logged many miles with family in tow. There is ample space in both the front and rear. Actually surprising considering the diminuitive size of the PT. The extra leg room for the rear passengers comes at the expense of cargo space. Tiny trunk that is difficult to access if you are tall. Costco runs are always interesting. see full Chrysler PT Cruiser review
 

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Chevrolet Cruze

2012 Chevrolet Cruze Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2013 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 1.8L I4
6-speed manual FWD
Rear seat legroom is a bit tight with the front seats fully back. see full Chevrolet Cruze review
2012 4dr Sedan turbocharged 138hp 1.4L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Unfortunately there is no leg room in the rear of the car when the front seats are a particular distant from the dashboard. So either all the people when riding in this car need to be small people like no more then 5 foot?! or you can only have two 6 foot people in it at a time. needs serious improvements there! see full Chevrolet Cruze review
