2013 0 Seats mold to your body and they heat up fast which helps in winter. see full Hyundai Elantra review

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
 

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Volkswagen Jetta

2014 Volkswagen Jetta Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearComment
2013 The Jetta is a little longer than the ILX (182 vs. 179 inches), and all of the additional inches appear to have gone into the rear seat. While the average adult will barely fit into the back seat of the Acura (those over 5-9 will be on close terms with the headliner), the Jetta has significantly more rear headroom and more rear legroom than the average midsize sedan, much less the average compact. If you like a roomy rear seat, you'll love the Jetta. Room is one thing, comfort another. The rear seat feels overly hard, and neither the cushion nor the backrest was set at a comfortable angle for me. Clearly some German engineer found these angles optimal, though. So maybe it's just me. see full Volkswagen Jetta review
