TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Fiat 500L

| Year | Comment | |
| 2014 | The front seats in the 500 (no L) aren't my favorite aspect of the car (to put it lightly). Those in the 500L are totally different. They're not luxurious. They're not sporty. But they're firm without being overly firm and the way the seatback angles forward from its midpoint provides excellent mid-back support. A power lumbar adjuster is available, but the tested car lacked this feature and I didn't miss it. The Soul's front seats are flatter, firmer, lacking in lumbar support, and generally much less comfortable. see full Fiat 500L review | |

| The 500L's rear seat, which slides and reclines, is mounted very high off the floor, and consequently provides better thigh support than most. Slide it all the way back, and legroom is plentiful (if still not as plentiful as in the Kia). But combine the high cushion with the optional panoramic sunroof, and even though I'm only 5-9 my scalp nearly touched the headliner. Anyone who intends to carry people over 5-10 in the back seat best skip the sunroof. Without it the 500L has much more rear headroom. see full Fiat 500L review | ||

This isn't a problem for me exactly, but I've noticed other reviewers have mentioned it. The front seats are firm and I've been told that the seat fabric in some of the other models can be a bit slick. It took me a few days to get fully accustomed to the seats and find the position that works best for me. I like the firmness because it gives extra support. It's certainly something you'll want to pay attention to when you test drive it. see full Fiat 500L review |
TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 Infiniti JX
| 2013 Infiniti JX Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| 2013 | I'm struggling to come up with a fifth reason for buying the Infiniti JX. Not because the rest of the vehicle is bad, but because in the great majority of aspects it's neither notably good nor notably bad compared to competitors. They're all fairly quick, smooth, and quiet. If I have to pick a fifth reason, then it's third row room and comfort. A Buick Enclave has a roomier third row, but both the Acura MDX and the Audi Q7 do worse. This said, the second row must be slid forward to provide legroom to people in the third row. The seats in both rearward rows are of the low-mounted, flat-cushioned variety typical of the segment, so they're not very comfortable for adults. You'll find a more adult-friendly second row in some large crossovers, especially those from Ford and Lincoln. see full Infiniti JX review | |

Amazing rear seat comfort and even 3rd row seats are awesome!! I am 6'4" (with a longer torso) and I can get in the car easy, and sit comfortably in the 3rd row!! Great DVD system and air climate control for the rear seated passangers. see full Infiniti JX review |

Awesome. Great layout of everything. The most comfortable seats I have ever sat in. Great for long drives over 3 hours. I wish my Toyota 4unner seats were as comfortable; they are only good for about 1 hour, max. see full Infiniti JX review |
