2014 Jeep Cherokee Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Comment
2014	The GMC Terrain and Subaru Forester have roomy rear seats, but no vents to keep people back there cool. The Ford Escape has rear air vents, but a much less roomy rear seat. The Jeep Cherokee has a roomy, comfortably high rear seat AND rear air vents. see full Jeep Cherokee review

2019 Hyundai Kona Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	Hyundai packaged the Kona fairly efficiently, but only so much was possible given the crossover's compact exterior dimensions. At 5-9 I can barely sit behind someone else my height, my knees nearly touching the front seat back. Put taller people in the front seats, and the rear seat would become viable only for small adults and children. The Honda HR-V has a much roomier rear seat (but much less comfortable front seats, at least for me, as their headrests jut too far forward). Most other competitors fall between the two. One exception: the Mazda CX-3 has an even tighter rear seat than the Kona. For those who fit, the Kona's rear seat is mounted comfortably high off the floor. see full Hyundai Kona review
