2010 Infiniti G Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2010	4dr Sedan 328-horsepower 3.7L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Smaller than the Maxima. Third person would be uncomfortable, less knee room. The plastic trough behind the front seat is too low. see full Infiniti G review
2010	2dr Hardtop conv. 325-horsepower 3.7L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD	The rear seat is basically a storage area. No one can sit back there! But its really no different than the rear of any convertible. (like my Mercedes Benz CLK350) see full Infiniti G review
2010	4dr Sedan 328-horsepower 3.7L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Seats in back are cramped. Once the kids hit teenage years they are not going to be happy back there for long rides. see full Infiniti G review
2010	4dr Sedan 328-horsepower 3.7L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Seems smaller than the G35, no rear reclining seats anymore and the headrests stick up a bit more than the old car. see full Infiniti G review
2009	2dr Coupe 330-horsepower 3.7L V6 6-speed manual RWD	The bolstering is excessive in the lowest setting and the seat belt pulls too hard on my chest. The seat belt also digs into my neck. see full Infiniti G review
2009	2dr Coupe 330-horsepower 3.7L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Way to small to be of use with anything but children. see full Infiniti G review
2009	2dr Coupe 330-horsepower 3.7L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Tight on head room but to be expected for two door. see full Infiniti G review

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Mercedes-Benz GL

2012 Mercedes-Benz GL Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Comment
2013	The Mercedes-Benz GL-Class is just a little longer than the Audi Q7 (201.6 vs. 200.3 inches), and isn't as wide (76.4 vs. 78.1 inches). But the Mercedes is considerably taller (72.8 vs. 68.4 inches) and not nearly as curvy. Which might explain how it is far roomier than the much sleeker Audi. Combined legroom for all three rows is 107.6 inches in the Q7 vs. 113.8 inches in the GL-Class, a large difference. The Q7's space deficit grows the farther back you sit. For adults to even fit in the Audi's third row without extreme discomfort, those in the second row must slide their seats forward to the point that they are themselves short on knee room. While the new GL350's third row sits too low to provide thigh support, it's not nearly as cramped. Further evidence that Audi didn't intend the Q7's third row for frequent use: the second-row seat doesn't do a good job of getting out of the way, making the path in and out of the way-back perhaps the tightest I've experienced. The second-row seat in the GL-Class tips forward to open up a much wider path. If manually tipping the seat is too much of a chore (perhaps because you'e a five-year-old and haven't yet learned to read this), $400 buys a power assist. But even with this option the seat must be manually returned to its upright position, so the point eludes me. see full Mercedes-Benz GL review
