2012 Hyundai Elantra Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2013 0 Seats mold to your body and they heat up fast which helps in winter. see full Hyundai Elantra review
2012 Hyundai Elantra Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2013 4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 1.8L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
This is really not a con. If they offered the option of a front passenger power seat with lumbar as an option, I along with many others would likely opt for it. see full Hyundai Elantra review
2011 4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 1.8L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
impossible for me to check rear when reversing. headrests are too big. see full Hyundai Elantra review

2006 Nissan Pathfinder Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2006 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 4.0L V6
5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range
Rear seat is cramped. I would gladly give up the third row seat, for more room for the rear (2nd row) seats. see full Nissan Pathfinder review
2006 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 4.0L V6
5-speed automatic RWD
Rear seating is small for long hauls, and seats WAY too hard see full Nissan Pathfinder review
