2007 Hyundai Accent Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2007 | 2dr Hatch 110-horsepower 1.6L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Small, Cramped, especially if you have children. Not easy to get into and out of. see full Hyundai Accent review |
2009 Kia Rondo Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2008 | 4dr Wagon 182-horsepower 2.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Tall large people can sit in the second row with more comfort as they can in the front seats of our Honda Civic or Sebring convertible. Third row is not bad for short trips for adults and children would be good for longer trips. see full Kia Rondo review |
