What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2007 Ford Taurus

2007 Ford Taurus Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr Sedan 263-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed automatic FWD	Outstanding interior space. I'm 6'4" with about a 34" inseam and I can sit comfortably in the rear when I have my front seat adjusted just so. With the driver seat all the way back, it's a stretch to reach the controls. see full Ford Taurus review
2008	4dr Sedan 263-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed automatic FWD	Three adults can sit in the back and there knees will not touch the front seats nor will there heads touch the ceiling. The seats are very comfortable. Noise is very low and the car has two vents blowing air or heat. see full Ford Taurus review

2008	4dr Sedan 263-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed automatic FWD	Taller people ride in comfort, with ample room for long legs, even when the front seats are back. The fact that they also fold down adds tremendous versatility to this car. see full Ford Taurus review

2007	4dr Wagon turbocharged 161hp 2.4L I5 Diesel 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Lumbar support see full Volvo V70 review
2007	4dr Wagon turbocharged 208hp 2.5L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	It may seem strange to rate seat comfort so highly, but that's only if you have never driven in a Volvo. Amazing, ergonomic, adjustable, but those could describe many seats. What my wife would say (and I've read others express as well) is if you have back problems, get your Dr. to prescribe you a Volvo! They are that good. see full Volvo V70 review
2006	4dr Wagon turbocharged 300hp 2.5L I5 6-speed manual AWD	Fantastic front seats see full Volvo V70 review
2006	4dr Wagon turbocharged 208hp 2.5L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Exceptionally comfortable seating for even very long trips. see full Volvo V70 review
2006	4dr Wagon turbocharged 300hp 2.5L I5 6-speed manual AWD	Almost as good as the seats in the 92 960. Good support & position except left footrest small & too far left. Lumbar support too far down for a tall person but bearable. Electric memory allows easy switching of seat position on long trips. Bun warmer. see full Volvo V70 review

2007 Volvo V70 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	4dr Wagon turbocharged 208hp 2.5L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	no knee room see full Volvo V70 review
2007	4dr Wagon turbocharged 208hp 2.5L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	There is not much if the front seats are back see full Volvo V70 review
2007	4dr Wagon turbocharged 208hp 2.5L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	To give rear seats reasonable amount of room, you have to keep front seats forwards. see full Volvo V70 review
2007	4dr Wagon turbocharged 208hp 2.5L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Though not a big issue, the rear seats could be a bit wider for better 3-abreast seating (though most vehicles share this limitation). The greater need, however, is another few inches of legroom. It is adequate, but only that. Another 3 or 4 inches would make the rear seat amazing, but then again, that would come at the cost of rear cargo capacity ... no such thing as a "free lunch". see full Volvo V70 review
