| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 263-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
This car is spacious and very easy to get into and out of. It allows one to sit up high and still have plentiful headroom. see full Hyundai Azera review |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 263-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Easy step-in combined with excellent headroom means my 96 year old mother in law can get in and out without effort! She can cross her legs when seated. see full Hyundai Azera review |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 263-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
The pitch between front and rear seats is huge. The rear door opens wider than almost any other current model, and my 97 year old mother in law can get in and out easily. see full Hyundai Azera review |

| 2012 Volkswagen Golf / GTI Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2012 | 4dr Hatch turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Four adults can easily and comfortably fit in this car, with plenty of room for luggage. see full Volkswagen Golf / GTI review |
| 2011 | 2dr Hatch 170-horsepower 2.5L I5 5-speed manual FWD |
Seats actually fit your body and have proper bolstering, unlike most other seats in this price range which are more like shelves for oversized American behinds. see full Volkswagen Golf / GTI review |
| 2011 | 4dr Hatch turbocharged 140hp 2.0L I4 Diesel 6-speed automated manual FWD |
Good leg room and supportive seats. see full Volkswagen Golf / GTI review |
| 2011 | 4dr Hatch turbocharged 140hp 2.0L I4 Diesel 6-speed automated manual FWD |
Good leg room for a small car. Supportive seats. see full Volkswagen Golf / GTI review |
| 2011 | 2dr Hatch turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
I have MS, so comfortable seats are a must. This is the only car that I've been in where I could do a non-stop trip from Michigan to Washington DC in. No fatigue, no stopping for a stretch. It's that good, and VW throws in standard heated seats for the GTI. And they do mean "heated" seats, not "warmed" seats, not "take-the-edge-off" seats. Turn them on full and your bum will be roasting with in a few minutes. see full Volkswagen Golf / GTI review |

| 2011 | 4dr Hatch turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD |
