TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Hyundai Veloster

2012 Hyundai Veloster Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Comment
2013	Okay, adults won't want to spend a long road trip in the back seat of a Veloster. But given the car's sleek styling and tidy exterior dimensions, there's a surprising amount of room back there. Not only is the third door justified, but a fourth portal would also be welcome. As is, whoever sits in the left rear seat has no easy way to get to it. Between the lack of a fourth door and the presence of a low console where a fifth person might otherwise sit, it's as if they want people who regularly tote kids to get an Elantra GT. Which, sadly, isn't offered with a 201-horsepower engine. see full Hyundai Veloster review

2007	4dr SUV 320-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic 4WD w/low range	like riding first class in an airplane see full Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban review
2007	4dr SUV 320-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic 4WD w/low range	There is plenty of space for all of the passengers and personal gear. The bucket seats add a lot of comfort. They also allow some extra room for third row passengers. Leather is the way to go, and the heated seats come in handy on those cold winter days. see full Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban review
2007	4dr SUV 320-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic RWD	the best! had a back operation three years ago and this was thed only vehicle i am comfortable in see full Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban review
2006	4dr SUV 295-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic 4WD w/low range	GMT800 series vehicles fit me better than any other. I prefer the '06 Tahoe to the '09 GMC Sierra i had prior to the Equinox i traded for the Tahoe. The Equinox was okay on a straight road, other than that, it was terrible!
