2011 Ford Fusion Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
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 |
2006 Subaru Baja Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2005 | 4dr SUT turbocharged 210hp 2.5L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
6 footers are going to have issues getting in and out. Also they will have to recline the seat too much just to keep their heads from hitting the roof. see full Subaru Baja review |
