Second row has fore/aft adjustability, and third row has adequate legroom for adults. Ours has seating for six. Comfortable and reasonably easy access. see full review |

Seats are comfortable and the leg room in all three rows is adequate for adults. Seats are easy to put up and down and it will carry a lot of stuff. Seats fold flat a major plus for how I use the car. see full review |
| 2012 Ford C-MAX Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| There's plenty of space for adults in the back seat of the C-MAX. But the seat is mounted too low to provide thigh support, and between this and the angle of the floor I could find no comfortable way to position my legs and feet. There's a huge amount of headroom, so this was not the limiting factor. Instead, the seat seems to be so low to enable a flat floor when it is folded without requiring that the seat bottom be folded separately from the seat back. Combine the low seat with a high beltline (bottom of the side windows), and children can't see out well. see full Ford C-MAX review | ||
