There is very little rear leg room, but this car isn't meant to be a people carrier. It is nice that there are rear seats, but anyone that is not a small child will have a hard time sitting in the back. see full Ford Mustang review |

waste of space, no good for seating, so should have been made for storage see full Ford Mustang review |

While our present government may blow off the standards & principles of the Geneva Convention, I still find them worthy enough to abide. Mustang rear seats are in clear violation. see full Ford Mustang review |
2015 Dodge Charger Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2015 | The Road & Track package includes some of the best front seats I've experienced. The side bolsters, though not adjustable, manage to effectively hold slender drivers in place without uncomfortably constraining far-from-slender ones. Synthetic suede center panels assist in this task. Yet as performance-oriented as these seats are, they aren't overly firm, and should prove comfortable even on day-long drives. Despite the more hardcore nature of the Chevrolet SS, its front seats have much smaller, far less effective bolsters. Some synthetic suede helps to mitigate this shortcoming, but the Dodge's buckets are much better for both comfort and support. see full Dodge Charger review |
2015 Dodge Charger Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Comment | |
The Dodge Charger's rear seat cushion is comfortably shaped and positioned. Rear knee room, though less abundant than the sedan's exterior dimensions might suggest, is neverless generous. So what is rear seat room doing among the reasons not to buy a Charger? Well, headroom is in short supply. People 5-11 and up could become painfully familiar with the backlight. Shorter passengers won't experience this issue, but could find the back seat uncomfortably confining because the smallish rear side windows descend only to neck level. For more rear headroom and larger rear side windows, check out the related Chrysler 300. Or the Chevrolet SS, which has 1.4 inches more rear headroom than the Charger. see full Dodge Charger review |
