2020 Hyundai Venue Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Comment | |
The Venue has a very small exterior compared to nearly every other North American market crossover, and Hyundai's packaging engineers performed no miracles. While the rear seat is high enough to provide thigh support and is comfortable, and headroom is plentiful, rear knee room is not. The Kia Soul and Seltos both offer more than four inches of additional rear legroom, a large difference. The Ford EcoSport offers two more inches. But the Hyundai Kona's rear seat is about as tight as the Venue's. see full Hyundai Venue review |

2014 Toyota Corolla Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2014 | The Corolla's specs indicate rear legroom worthy of a large sedan, 41.3 inches, a substantial four more than in the Sentra and five more than in last year's Corolla. To provide this increase, Toyota stretched the car's wheelbase by four inches, taking it from the shortest in the segment to the 106.3-inch dimension shared by the Hyundai, Kia, Mazda, and Nissan. The Ford Focus, with a 104.3-inch wheelbase, is now the briefest of the bunch. The Corolla's overall length has also grown by four inches, to 182.6. Subjectively, the Corolla's advantage over the Sentra seems about half as large. Still a lot of legroom for a compact, especially in conjunction with a more comfortably positioned seat. Rear seat headroom is in much shorter supply in both cars. see full Toyota Corolla review |
