TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 Hyundai Veloster

2013 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

2006 Subaru Outback Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	4dr Sedan 245-horsepower 3.0L H6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Leg and head room lacking for over 6 footers. see full Subaru Outback review
2007	4dr Sedan 245-horsepower 3.0L H6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Seat back a bit low for 6 footers. see full Subaru Outback review
2007	4dr Wagon 175-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD	I was amazed at how small the back seat is in this car. Really no bigger than a compact sedan, eg Civic or Corolla. I can't fit my 3 kids (in car seats) back there, and feel bad when co-workers pile in to go to lunch. Surprisingly small for a vehicle this size, and marketed as a "family car." If you plan to put adults or 3 kids back there regularly, look at the '10 or newer (or at something else -- the rear seat in my co-worker's Accord is far bigger and more comfortable). see full Subaru Outback review
2006	4dr Wagon 175-horsepower 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD	Too small for kids see full Subaru Outback review
2006	4dr Wagon 175-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Too short! I am 6ft tall and the front passenger seat leaves me feeling very cramped. Drivers position is better. Seats also too narrow. Maybe plenty of room for skinny folks, but not for us folks that are large boned :-) see full Subaru Outback review
2005	4dr Wagon 168-horsepower 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD	The Outback is much smaller (but not cheaper) than the XC70. see full Subaru Outback review
2005	4dr Wagon 168-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD	very tight and narrow rear seat room. feels much bumpier in the rear seat than the front seat. see full Subaru Outback review
