Enough room for my elderly Dad to sit there comfortably, unlike the back seat of the Subaru Forester which was my original first choice. see full Ford Escape review |

2016 Audi TT Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2016 | The new Audi TT's seats rank among the best for support and comfort, something of a surprise since they are in a sports car, not a luxury sedan, and don't have many adjustments. The more powerful, more expensive TTS has front seats with adjustable side bolsters, but these aren't offered in the regular TT. The sport package for the BMW 2 Series includes seats with adjustable bolsters, yet they can't be made to fit my form as well as the Audi's do. Nor can those in larger, more expensive Audis. Puzzling. see full Audi TT review |

Year | Comment | |
Many people will probably leave the rear seat folded, as head room and legroom are both scant. People much over five feet in height simply won't fit. Even a BMW 2 Series has a considerably roomier rear seat. see full Audi TT review |
