2018 Hyundai Kona Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Comment | |
Hyundai packaged the Kona fairly efficiently, but only so much was possible given the crossover's compact exterior dimensions. At 5-9 I can barely sit behind someone else my height, my knees nearly touching the front seat back. Put taller people in the front seats, and the rear seat would become viable only for small adults and children. The Honda HR-V has a much roomier rear seat (but much less comfortable front seats, at least for me, as their headrests jut too far forward). Most other competitors fall between the two. One exception: the Mazda CX-3 has an even tighter rear seat than the Kona. For those who fit, the Kona's rear seat is mounted comfortably high off the floor. see full Hyundai Kona review |

Not enough rear seat legroom for a car in this class. see full Volvo S60 review |

Minimal rear seat leg room. Our kids are 9 & 8 - we are having to look for a replacement car as they are getting too big for this one. To offset the front seats are as comfortable as I have experienced in a car. Now considering an S80 or XC70. see full Volvo S60 review |
