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

Limited legroom. see full Ford Fusion review
2008 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
The roofline should be a few inches higher, and the lower section of the centre stack should be narrower to provide more room for the right knee. see full Ford Fusion review

Seat support seemed to break down over the 2 years I drove this vehicle. Window was very high in relation to the seat. see full Ford Fusion review
 

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Nissan Versa

2012 Nissan Versa Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2013 4dr Sedan 109-horsepower 1.6L I4
5-speed manual FWD
Even with the front seats slid all the way back, this car still has more room than almost any other car -- almost as much room as a BMW 780IL. see full Nissan Versa review
2012 4dr Sedan 109-horsepower 1.6L I4
CVT FWD
Only subcompact we test drove that could actually fit four adults. More rear leg room than many midsize cars. see full Nissan Versa review
2011 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
6-speed manual FWD
The seats were ample, and well supported. In my last two cars (a Corolla and a Legacy) I needed a lumbar cushion, but not in the Versa. The seat bottoms also supported my thighs for enough of their length for comfort. see full Nissan Versa review
2012 Nissan Versa Seat Room and Comfort: Cons

When I bought the car, I laid the seat down all the way to make sure it would be comfortable enough to nap on.  It is, but it's slightly more comfortable if the car is parked on an incline because the seat doesn't quite go down completely flat... although come to think of it I haven't tried raising the seat height with the lever then setting the seat back.  Anyway, the passenger side doesn't have a seat height adjustment lever and it doesn't quite make a 180% flat angle either. see full Nissan Versa review
