SE vs. SXT. The rear seats and bench are comfortable for 5 people. The SXT is exactly the same, but leather is cooold in winter. Both have more room than other brands. see full Dodge Grand Caravan review |

Stow-n-go seating is very uncomfortable. Rotating seats have no room to sit face to face with rear seat passengers. Base model forces one to get a center bench. see full Dodge Grand Caravan review |

Seats are hard. Headrest forces your head to bend too far forward. Sculpted seat backs forces your shoulders too far forward from your spine. see full Nissan Sentra review |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 126-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
With the front seats all the way back, children can barely fit their legs behind the seats. see full Nissan Sentra review |
