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

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr Sedan 240-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
The front seats are very comfortable, and provide very adequate support for long trips. Side support isn't the very best for hard cornering though. see full Ford Fusion review |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed automatic FWD |
All passengers have commented about the generous space and overall comfort of the rear seat. see full Ford Fusion review |

Controls are easily adjusted to fit any driver. Lateral support is good without feeling pinched into the seat. Dead pedal is perfectly positioned. see full Ford Fusion review |

| 2012 Chevrolet Traverse Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2012 | 4dr SUV 281-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Although the rear captain seats are quite comfortable, I do not like how they roll forward. There is a track in the floor in which the rear seats fold and slide up behind the front seats. All I notice when in the back seat is how extremely difficult it is to clean out the mud and grit and salt (I live in Canada, we use salt on our roads) that gets left behind in the track from passenger footwear. see full Chevrolet Traverse review |

The headrest position is horrible for long trips. Felt like my head was being pushed forward. see full Chevrolet Traverse review |
