TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Dodge Charger

2014 Dodge Charger Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearComment
2015 The Road & Track package includes some of the best front seats I've experienced. The side bolsters, though not adjustable, manage to effectively hold slender drivers in place without uncomfortably constraining far-from-slender ones. Synthetic suede center panels assist in this task. Yet as performance-oriented as these seats are, they aren't overly firm, and should prove comfortable even on day-long drives. Despite the more hardcore nature of the Chevrolet SS, its front seats have much smaller, far less effective bolsters. Some synthetic suede helps to mitigate this shortcoming, but the Dodge's buckets are much better for both comfort and support. see full Dodge Charger review
2014 Dodge Charger Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearComment
The Dodge Charger's rear seat cushion is comfortably shaped and positioned. Rear knee room, though less abundant than the sedan's exterior dimensions might suggest, is neverless generous. So what is rear seat room doing among the reasons not to buy a Charger? Well, headroom is in short supply. People 5-11 and up could become painfully familiar with the backlight. Shorter passengers won't experience this issue, but could find the back seat uncomfortably confining because the smallish rear side windows descend only to neck level. For more rear headroom and larger rear side windows, check out the related Chrysler 300. Or the Chevrolet SS, which has 1.4 inches more rear headroom than the Charger. see full Dodge Charger review

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Volkswagen Jetta

2012 Volkswagen Jetta Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearComment
2013 The Jetta is a little longer than the ILX (182 vs. 179 inches), and all of the additional inches appear to have gone into the rear seat. While the average adult will barely fit into the back seat of the Acura (those over 5-9 will be on close terms with the headliner), the Jetta has significantly more rear headroom and more rear legroom than the average midsize sedan, much less the average compact. If you like a roomy rear seat, you'll love the Jetta. Room is one thing, comfort another. The rear seat feels overly hard, and neither the cushion nor the backrest was set at a comfortable angle for me. Clearly some German engineer found these angles optimal, though. So maybe it's just me. see full Volkswagen Jetta review

While the Jetta is extremely roomy and comfortable, the center console is slightly too close and can interfere with the driver's right knee and calf. see full Volkswagen Jetta review
