2006 Jeep Wrangler Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2007 | 4dr SUV 202-horsepower 3.8L V6 4-speed automatic RWD |
Still small, despite the increased size of the vehicle. see full Jeep Wrangler review |
2006 | 2dr SUV, ext. 190-horsepower 4.0L I6 6-speed manual 4WD, part-time w/low range |
There is not much rear leg room and the seat has you sitting straight up instead of slight recline. see full Jeep Wrangler review |

2015 Chevrolet SS Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2015 | Despite its slightly more compact exterior, the Chevrolet SS has a roomier back seat than the Dodge Charger. Rear headroom is in unexpectedly short supply in the latter. The Chevrolet also has a couple more inches of rear hiproom, so three adults won't have to get quite as cozy in its back seat. Both cars have about 16 cubic feet of trunk space. A good amount, but you'll find as much in most midsize sedans. Unlike the Charger's, the SS's rear seat cannot fold to expand the trunk. But a pass-through in the center is far larger than most. see full Chevrolet SS review |
2015 Chevrolet SS Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Comment | |
The front seats in the Chevrolet SS are comfortable. They also look like they'd provide generous lateral support, but don't, at least not for those of us who aren't built like linebackers. Thankfully the upper seat back features some synthetic suede trim, and this prevents sliding in hard turns. Still, a car with such high handling limits should have seats with much larger and more effective side bolsters--like those available in the Dodge Charger. see full Chevrolet SS review |
