TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2019 Hyundai Elantra GT

2019 Hyundai Elantra GT Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	The front seats are comfortable and supportive in both cars, with Hyundai's likely agreeable for a wider range of body sizes and types. And the rear seat? Here we have another area where the Elantra Touring excelled, but neither Elantra GT has. The culprit this time isn't design, but a decision by those who make the big bucks at the corporate level. Hyundai offers Europeans the i30 (the same car with a different model name) in two lengths. These are marketed as a hatchback and as an estate or touring or tourer or kombi or whatever other label might help sell what Americans call station wagons. With the Elantra Touring, we got the latter, and consequently far more rear seat room and cargo carrying capacity than in any other compact hatchback. But we didn't buy the car. So with the first and second Elantra GT we've been getting the much less lengthy, more athletically proportioned hatchback. As it stands (or rather, sits), the Elantra GT's rear seat shouldn't be condemned as useless unless you're a driver of above-average height with similarly sized passsengers. At 5-9, I fit behind a driver seat set for myself with perhaps three inches between my knees and the seat back and about a half-inch to spare between the top of my head and the headliner (in a two-pedal Elantra GT with the optional sunroof). But people even a couple inches taller than me will feel cramped. The rear seats in the GTI and Civic are roomier. One plus in the Elantra GT's column: its rear seat passengers get air vents. The Civic's don't. In terms of cargo space the Elantra GT is more competitive, but nothing special the way it was with the Elantra Touring. see full Hyundai Elantra GT review

2010 Mazda Mazda5 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2010	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	CAN SEAT 6 PEOPLE see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2010	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD	2nd-row seat slide fore/aft and recline. Ample room even for larger passengers to be comfortable on long trips. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2010	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD	6-passenger seating adequate for older teens, stows away for hauling capacity. see full Mazda Mazda5 review

2010 Mazda Mazda5 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2010	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	LAST ROW TOO SMALL FOR ADULTS see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2010	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Not great support in either the seat cushion or back. However, driving position is fine. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2010	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Too small for a road trip with 6 grown men. The 2nd row is tight but not uncomfortable for me (6 ft tall). The 3rd row is for children or pets only. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2009	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Not enough leg room overall in the car. As a larger driver (6'3"), I need to push the drivers seat back. So the kid behind me has to get pushed back. Well the third row can't move back, so I've I'm driving, no one can sit in the third row driver's side and have any leg room. This is the worst for kids in full-size car seats, because the seats position their legs higher and forward of where a small adult's would be with no car seat. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2009	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The six-chair setup of the 5 means that luggage space is limited, and some may find the "three rows of two" arrangement adds difficulty to monitoring children in the far rear seats. In order to carry significant cargo the seats need to be removed. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2009	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The center seats are adequate for tall adults. Judicious positioning of the front and center seats should get you better results than a subcompact. The third-row rear seats are for kids only. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2009	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The back seat is made for very small folks only. The middle row seat belts are placed somewhat far back. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
