The seating throughout the vehicle is extremely roomy. Adults can fit comfortably in both the second and third row seats. The driver and passenger seats are also extremely comfortable. see full Ford Flex review |

Plenty of room in the first and second rows. The third row will fit an adult, but is better for the kids. see full Ford Flex review |

Took awhile to think of something that could be improved but a bit larger area in the front drivers footwell would be appreciated. That's about it. see full Ford Flex review |
TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe
| 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| 2013 | Nothing impressed me more about the new Santa Fe than the amount of combined legroom. With a length of 193 inches (2.5 more than the Veracruz), the new crossover is four inches shorter than a Nissan Pathfinder and over seven inches shorter than a GMC Acadia, yet you'll find more legroom in its second and third rows. On top of this, unlike in the Nissan and GMC (but like in the Veracruz, this hasn't changed) the second-row seat is comfortably high off the floor. Alas, all is not good in this area--check out the cons below--so I haven't rated it against the Pathfinder. see full Hyundai Santa Fe review | |

| As noted among the pros, you'll find abundant legroom in the Santa Fe. But shoulder room is a different story. The new Santa Fe's 74.2-inch width exceeds that of the typical compact crossover or midsize sedan, but is narrower than that of the Highlander, Veracruz, Pathfinder, Pilot, and Acadia by 1.0, 2.4, 3.0, 4.3, and 4.7 inches, respectively. For anyone seeking to sit three across in the second row (or who simply prefers the spacious ambiance of a wide vehicle in any row), the Santa Fe's consequently narrower interior could be the #1 downside of sharing as much as possible with the new two-row Santa Fe Sport. Then again, maximum shoulder room for three passengers is only an issue with the Santa Fe GLS. As mentioned in the preceding section, the Santa Fe Limited has standard captains chairs, and so can only seat six. Anyone seeking a full zoot crossover with seating for more people will have to shop elsewhere. see full Hyundai Santa Fe review | ||
