Nice car, but front seats could be better. Close to a deal breaker. see full Dodge Grand Caravan review |
2014 Jeep Cherokee Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2014 | The GMC Terrain and Subaru Forester have roomy rear seats, but no vents to keep people back there cool. The Ford Escape has rear air vents, but a much less roomy rear seat. The Jeep Cherokee has a roomy, comfortably high rear seat AND rear air vents. see full Jeep Cherokee review |
