The Edge rear seat legroom is great. There are few crossovers with such good rear seat comfort and legroom. I did not want the third row, the lack of third row helps with rear legroom. see full Ford Edge review |

2014 Mitsubishi Outlander Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Comment | |
There's a reason three-row crossovers tend to be much larger than this pair. The third-row seat in the Kia Sorento doesn't provide enough headroom for the average adult male. Both comfort and knee room are also in short supply. You might think that a seat couldn't get any tighter than the Sorento's third row. But, based on the official specs, the Outlander has nearly four inches less combined legroom--a huge difference. Even children won't fit in the Mitsubishi's third row unless you slide the second row forward much of the way. The 2014's third row seat is at least a conventional seat. Last year it was little more than a sling. In either vehicle the second row split bench is roomy and comfortable, with enough height off the floor to provide adults with good thigh support. But the rear passengers in the Outlander don't get air vents. Those in the Kia do. see full Mitsubishi Outlander review |
