2013 Hyundai Sonata Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Comment
2013	According to the EPA's classification system, the Hyundai Sonata is actually a large car. You wouldn't guess this while sitting in the front seat. A steeply raked windshield and cockpit-like instrument panel design cut into actual roominess, and perceived roominess even more. The Sonata's firm front buckets could use more form-fitting contouring. Though not uncomfortable, they are the least comfortable buckets in this threesome. In the back seat, six-foot passengers' scalps might graze the headliner, but knee room is generous. There's a bit more room and a more comfortably padded and positioned rear seat cushion inside the Altima. But the Mazda6's rear seat is at least as low to the floor as the Sonata's and includes a couple inches less knee room. So the Hyundai has a slight edge over the Mazda. see full Hyundai Sonata review

2013	4dr Sedan 200-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The front driver seat is supportive yet firm and the power adjustments guarantee you'll get the right driving position for you. The heated seat feature is great on a cold morning too. see full Hyundai Sonata review

2013	4dr Sedan 198-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Ride is comfortable but after about 2 or 3 hours, the leather seats get a bit hard on the butt. see full Hyundai Sonata review
2012	4dr Sedan 198-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Have the Limited with leather heated seats. They are not as comfortable as expected. The seat bolsters are a little tight for my back side. see full Hyundai Sonata review

2009	4dr Sedan 273-horsepower 3.7L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	This the best point of this car. The leather, from Scotland, is the best I have experienced in a car... And the room is such that my 6 foot son feels separate from me when along for the drive. see full Lincoln MKS review
2009	4dr Sedan 273-horsepower 3.7L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Front seats are the most comfortable ones I have sat in, the lumbar adjustment is great, not only goes in and out ( harder / softer ), it also has an adjustment for up aand down. see full Lincoln MKS review
2009	4dr Sedan 273-horsepower 3.7L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Honeslty hard to explain. My kids feel like they are on a couch. Heated. see full Lincoln MKS review
