I have taken many long trips and the front seats never leave you with any discomfort when getting out. see full Dodge Caliber review |

Plenty of room to stretch out. see full Dodge Caliber review |

| 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 |

Not enough rear knee room. Hard to enter and exit the back seat. see full Dodge Caliber review |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2005 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 227hp 2.0L H4 4-speed automatic AWD |
Cramped rear seat leg room. Rear door opening tight at shoe level. Swooping c-pillar design obstructs outward visibility. see full Saab 9-2X review |
| 2005 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 227hp 2.0L H4 4-speed automatic AWD |
Lack of any type of lumbar support is very uncomfortable. I opened the seat and installed my own inflatable device...much better now. see full Saab 9-2X review |

Somewhat cramped rear legroom. see full Saab 9-2X review |
