2013 Dodge Dart Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Comment | |
The Dart's generous size pays few dividends in its back seat, where legroom, though a bit more abundant than in the Focus, is in shorter supply than inside some other smaller, lighter competitors. The average adult will fit behind the average adult with a little room to spare. The seat itself isn't quite as comfortable as the higher, larger, better-shaped cushion in the Focus. see full Dodge Dart review |

2013 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 160hp 1.4L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Seats are comfortable for long periods even in the base Aero. Various models have different headrest designs, some better and worse. Nice ergonomics, generally. see full Dodge Dart review |

There is plenty enough room for me. My 6'5" friend is comfortable sitting in my Dart and says there is more leg and head room than his Corvette. I'd say this is a big plus for perspective buyers. see full Dodge Dart review |

I can set the front seat in a comfortable location for myself and still have room behind me for a rear seat passenger. Seat can be positioned for a more chair-like seating position. see full Dodge Challenger review |

Larger/wider back seat with capability of handling modern child seats. Adequate space for occasional adult use of back seat. see full Dodge Challenger review |

With the tilt/telescope steering wheel and the larger interior room vs. its competitors this car is easily adjusted to fit the driver and I get out still feeling good after all-day drives. see full Dodge Challenger review |
