| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.0L I4 CVT FWD |
With front seats all the way back, limited legroom. Not a big deal see full Dodge Caliber review |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.0L I4 CVT FWD |
When front seats are sild back, very little leg room for passengers in back--even kids. see full Dodge Caliber review |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 264-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
The rear seat can slide forward and back 8" providing generous leg room for rear passengers. see full Chevrolet Equinox review |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 185-horsepower 3.4L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
The bucket seats are at a perfect height for easy entry and exit. Also there is a liftable arm rest between the seats for storing purse, etc. which eliminates the need for reaching to the back when the passenger seat is occupied. see full Chevrolet Equinox review |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 185-horsepower 3.4L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Ample leg and hip room. I am only 5foot 4 inches but have a wide posterior. Seat is comfortable for me. My son is 6 foot 3 inches and medium build. He has ample leg and body room. see full Chevrolet Equinox review |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 185-horsepower 3.4L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
The rear bench seat can slide forward or back. When slid back, there is ample leg room for even the tallest of passengers. see full Chevrolet Equinox review |
