2013 Ford Fiesta Seat Room and Comfort: Cons

Comment
Just as the Ford Fiesta has some clear strengths, it also has some clear weaknesses. Its rear seat, though comfortably positioned well off the floor, is the tightest in the segment. At 5-9, I can barely squeeze behind myself. The Fit's rear seat is far roomier.

Narrow car with narrow seats. If you are a taller/bigger person, expect that the seats will feel like doll furniture after an hour.

I'm 6'3" and often don't fit comfortable in vehicles. I found this had a very nice amount of front seat room. The center console tends to stay out of the way as well, some newer designs have the center stack moving into where my right knee would be. It's a very noticeable improvement over my previous 2009 Escape. I actually found the Forester more comfortable for me than the Outback. I was expecting the opposite.

After looking at Explorer's, I was surprised how much more room the Forester had in the back seat. Granted it doesn't have a third row, but if you don't need a 3rd row, the Forester is hard to beat in this segment for rear seat room. We can put a forward facing child seat in the back, move the front seat up a about 2 inches from all the way back and there's still plenty of front passenger room and my 1.5 year old son can't kick the back of the seat.

- Terrible front seat support - The cushions are too short - It's not noticeable on a test drive right away. I would not have bought the car! Test drive extensively!
- Surfaces where your elbows would lay are too hard - I purchased foam pads to make it feel better.
- Tall drivers like myself will struggle with the telescoping wheel's short extension range.
- It is hard to get into a fully comfortable driving position. The memory seats in the XT help somewhat by retaining your seat settings if moved.
- Front seat cushions are too short - Yes I said this twice
- Front seat cushions are too short - Yes I said this THREE times!
Subaru are you listening? The front seat cushions are WAY TOO SHORT!
