2007 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Can fit my two young children with their car seats and my teenage son has room to sit in the back and text for hours. More comfortable seats than my extended cab 1500. see full Hyundai Elantra review |

I find it to be very comfortable. The back seat lacks leg room for three people to fit comfortably. If an adult is in the front then the person behind has little leg room. see full Hyundai Elantra review |

Hard to fit a car seat back there. That should give you some idea. see full Hyundai Elantra review |
2015 Hyundai Veloster Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||

2015 | 3dr Hatch 132-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD |
The Veloster is setup like a sports car - stiff suspension, low riding height, and sport seats designed to keep you in place. What this car is not is comfortable. At all. There is almost no back support, and little coushining. On a long trip, it will be PAIN. On roads trampled on by dinosaurs, it will be PAIN. The interior accents also get in the way of resting your legs on anything, so you have to just deal with the space provided, which isn't much. This car is just big enough, and not a milimeter more. see full Hyundai Veloster review |
