What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2006 GMC Yukon

2006 GMC Yukon Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 4dr SUV, ext. 320-horsepower 5.3L V8
4-speed automatic RWD
The standard power seat offers unlimited seating positions. see full GMC Yukon review
2006 4dr SUV 335-horsepower 6.0L V8
4-speed automatic AWD
The seats are big, have a good amount of padding, and still provide some side lubar support to help keep you in the seat during hard cornering. see full GMC Yukon review
2005 4dr SUV 335-horsepower 6.0L V8
4-speed automatic AWD
Plenty of room for driver to stretch legs. Makes long trips easier see full GMC Yukon review
2005 4dr SUV 335-horsepower 6.0L V8
4-speed automatic AWD
Seat is very configurable. Easy to find a comfortable position. see full GMC Yukon review
2005 4dr SUV 335-horsepower 6.0L V8
4-speed automatic AWD
Captains chairs might be more comfortable than front seats. 3rd row is essentially useless. Remove the seats for extra storage space see full GMC Yukon review
 

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Chevrolet Malibu

2014 Chevrolet Malibu Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearComment
On paper, the Malibu's rear seat is only a little tighter than those in the 2008-2012 sedan and in competing cars. In person, rear knee room would only be marginally competitive in the compact sedan segment. Sitting behind my 5-9 self, my shins graze the front seatbacks. GM is rushing some revised seats to market. But if past attempts to fix a cramped rear seat are any indication, this won't make a substantial difference. The rear seat in the Ford Fusion is roomier, if also short of the segment's quasi-limos. see full Chevrolet Malibu review
 

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Chevrolet Malibu

2014 Chevrolet Malibu Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2014 4dr Sedan 196-horsepower 2.5L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Both front & rear compartments very roomy & comfortable. Again, this is noted improvement over our 2009 Malibu. see full Chevrolet Malibu review
2014 Chevrolet Malibu Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2013 4dr Sedan 182-horsepower 2.4L I4 Hybrid
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
This is tight if front seats are postioned at or close to the back of their range; shorter wheelbase in this model compared to prior version. Rear seat access is excellent (i.e, for infant car seats, small item transport). see full Chevrolet Malibu review
