Other sedans I have owned always left something to be desired in the back seat. Not the Sonata. With so much rear space you really feel like you are in a full sized car! Plus being a big guy has always cramped my rear passengers until now! see full Hyundai Sonata review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2009 Volkswagen Eos

2009 Volkswagen Eos Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2009 2dr Hardtop conv. turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4
6-speed manual FWD
The car is comfy on long trips, and the seat heaters are super. The car is great with the top down—if you deploy the wind deflector, you don’t get your hair blown all over the place. The faux leather on the seats is fine-- you can only get real leather if you get the LUX model, and then you can’t have a manual transmission. see full Volkswagen Eos review

Seat is small and okay for short trips. Adults fit okay when the top is down, access is tight witht the top up. see full Volkswagen Eos review
