2014 Ford C-MAX Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	There's plenty of space for adults in the back seat of the C-MAX. But the seat is mounted too low to provide thigh support, and between this and the angle of the floor I could find no comfortable way to position my legs and feet. There's a huge amount of headroom, so this was not the limiting factor. Instead, the seat seems to be so low to enable a flat floor when it is folded without requiring that the seat bottom be folded separately from the seat back. Combine the low seat with a high beltline (bottom of the side windows), and children can't see out well. see full Ford C-MAX review
