2020 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 287-horsepower 3.6L V6 9-speed automatic FWD |
The front seats in the other mini-vans ftom Kia, Honda, and Toyota felt constricting and my spouse loves the ample hip room the Pacifica front seats provide. see full Chrysler Pacifica review |

The 2nd row seats are firm and provide enough legroom for persons <6ft but="" do="" not="" slide="" fwd="" backwd="" 3rd="" row="" seating="" is="" comfortable="" for="" short="" durations="" persons="">6ft but the 2nd row seat backs can be folded flat for more room if not occupied or stored in the floor to provide generous legroom if passengers ride in the 3rd row. see full Chrysler Pacifica review |
2011 Nissan Versa Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2012 | 4dr Sedan 109-horsepower 1.6L I4 CVT FWD |
Only subcompact we test drove that could actually fit four adults. More rear leg room than many midsize cars. see full Nissan Versa review |
2011 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
The seats were ample, and well supported. In my last two cars (a Corolla and a Legacy) I needed a lumbar cushion, but not in the Versa. The seat bottoms also supported my thighs for enough of their length for comfort. see full Nissan Versa review |
