By definition, being a subcompact means a smaller interior. To be fair, although the Accent is technically a subcompact, the government compares the Accent to compact cars. In fact, the Accent has more interior room than the large Civics or Corollas. see full Hyundai Accent review |

I love how the Tiida/Versa has more rear leg room in it than the maxima does. a male of my build can sit in the back seat comfortably with the passenger seat pushed all the way back see full Nissan Versa review |

The seats on this were really not nice. Cheap is the word. Poor shaping, no lumbar support. They have really improved this in the new 2012 sedan, at least. It only took them 5 years. see full Nissan Versa review |
