2011 Honda Accord Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	4dr Sedan 190-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Another reason I'm glad I got the EX model. The power lumbar on the drivers seat is my backs best friend. Even after 16 hour days and 1100 miles, my back is fine. Excellent seats! see full Honda Accord review
2011	4dr Sedan 177-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD	6'4" and plenty of head and leg room. Leather seats and lumbar support fit me well. see full Honda Accord review
2010	4dr Sedan 177-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD	Spacing is good, material use is comfortable. see full Honda Accord review

2011 Honda Accord Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2010	4dr Sedan 177-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Lumbar support is too aggressive, and it is non-adjustable in the LX model. I have gotten used to them, but they are nowhere near the same league as my previously owned Saabs and BMWs. see full Honda Accord review

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2018 Kia Stinger

2018 Kia Stinger Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Comment
2018	Spring for the top-of-the-line Stinger GT2, and the Kia's driver seat gains power adjustments for its side bolsters and cushion length. The tested car was a GT1, yet I did not miss these adjustments. The seat fit me very well without them. I did miss the GT2's ventilated seats on hot days. And if your front seat passenger requires 4-way adjustable lumbar or either of you desires upgraded leather, then you'll also want the top trim. The tested Audi S5 Sportback was fitted with optional ventilated seats. Unfortunately, upgrading to these seats deletes the otherwise standard power-adjustable side bolsters (and massage function), and in this car I did miss having them. Compared to the Kia's, the Audi's seats are much firmer and not nearly as form-fitting. In my rating, I've assumed that the S5 Sportback's standard seats can be adjusted to provide better support than the optional ventilated seats. Otherwise I'd rate the Kia's front seats "much better." Moving to the back seat, in either car headroom should be just enough for adults up to about six feet in height. This is a big improvement over the initial iteration of the S5 Sportback. That car never made it to North America because of a severe rear headroom deficiency. When it comes to rear knee and leg room, the Stinger offers about two-and-a-half more inches. Rear seat passengers are likely to prefer the Kia, especially if they can't quite fit behind a tall driver in the S5. see full Kia Stinger review
