TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 Ford Focus

2010 The rear seat is fairly comfortable--if you fit. Many compacts have roomier back seats. see full Ford Focus review
 

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 Ford Focus

2011 Ford Focus Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2010 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
I am ranking the driver's seat high in comfort even though 10 minutes is not enough to be sure. The seat has a lot of adjustability, including height. It feels like sitting on a platform rather than a hammock. The seat felt supportive without being hard. I can imagine it would allow for long distance travel in comfort. see full Ford Focus review

Head room was great and the seat adjusted vertically with an easy to use lever. see full Ford Focus review

Driver seat cushion very uncomfortable after 30 minutes; feels like no cushion in seat see full Ford Focus review

It's tight in the back. Entry and egress are a bit cumbersome in particular for the feet. My shoe size is 9.5. see full Ford Focus review

Like sitting on concrete. One minor positive was that the lumbar support was decent, but overall lacking in comfort. see full Ford Focus review

2006 BMW Z4 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 2dr Hatch 330-horsepower 3.2L I6
6-speed manual RWD
Adjustable thigh bolster and seat back bolsters offer great support and the Nappa leather is grippy to prevent sliding around. see full BMW Z4 review
2006 2dr Convertible 215-horsepower 3.0L I6
6-speed manual RWD
I find the front seat, even heated, to have great lumbar support, my sciatica does not bother me even when I have to use the clutch. Those with long legs are amazed at all the leg room available. see full BMW Z4 review
2005 2dr Convertible 184-horsepower 2.5L I6
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD
enough leg room for a six-footer (unlike the Miata we almost bought) see full BMW Z4 review

low roof line, long doors make entryb and exit difficult see full BMW Z4 review

There is no rear seat. see full BMW Z4 review
2007 2dr Hatch 330-horsepower 3.2L I6
6-speed manual RWD
I would not recommend the car for EXTREMELY long road trips or the like. Comfort wise, if you used to something that is very plush or soft the car will feel too hard on badly paved roads. see full BMW Z4 review
