| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Have the EXL model with heated, power drivers seat. Passenger seat heat is not heated on the back portion due to some airbag issue. Comfortable front seats. Good rear leg room. see full Honda Accord review |

| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
The seats were very comfortable. Lots of lateral support and for the long drive to the west valley of Phoenix to see my parents, the seats did not let me down. see full Honda Accord review |
| 2006 | 2dr Coupe 244-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |

One reason I was looking at new cars was because I was about to need a place to put a carseat. My previous vehicle was a truck. The backseat of the Accord is VERY roomy. see full Honda Accord review |

| 2010 Kia Forte Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Plenty of room, indeed there may be too much room as it is a bit of a reach to unlock the passenger side door, almost impossible to adjust the passenger door mirror and lower the passenger window? Forget it. Plenty of elbow room. see full Kia Forte review |
| 2011 | 4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
My Jazz Bass, in its case, fits on the floor between the front and rear seats. Just like the front seats, there is plenty of room for two and adequate room for three. see full Kia Forte review |

| 2011 | 4dr Hatch 156-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
I feel the seat is to far away from the wheel and the pedals are angled to steeply. The dead pedal is perfect though. see full Kia Forte review |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
too small and too tight. see full Kia Forte review |
