What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 Kia Forte

2011 Kia Forte Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2011 4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Plenty of room, indeed there may be too much room as it is a bit of a reach to unlock the passenger side door, almost impossible to adjust the passenger door mirror and lower the passenger window? Forget it. Plenty of elbow room. see full Kia Forte review
2011 4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
My Jazz Bass, in its case, fits on the floor between the front and rear seats. Just like the front seats, there is plenty of room for two and adequate room for three. see full Kia Forte review

2011 4dr Hatch 156-horsepower 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
I feel the seat is to far away from the wheel and the pedals are angled to steeply. The dead pedal is perfect though. see full Kia Forte review
2010 4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.0L I4
5-speed manual FWD
too small and too tight. see full Kia Forte review

2008 4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6
4-speed automatic RWD
Plenty of leg room. see full Dodge Charger review
2008 4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6
4-speed automatic RWD
Plenty of leg room and comfortable seats for long road trips.No knees bumping the front seats even with the front seats all the way back. see full Dodge Charger review
2008 4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 5.7L V8
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD
Enough roon for a big guy like me to be totally comfortable. No having to hold my legs in an odd position, like one of my past cars, or put my left arm in an uncomfortable spot to be able to relax it. Having big feet makes many cars torture devices. see full Dodge Charger review
2008 4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 5.7L V8
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD
Lots of room, this is a big car. see full Dodge Charger review
2007 4dr Sedan 350-horsepower 5.7L V8
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD
I have three pre-teen kids and they love it. No fighting like in our Accord. see full Dodge Charger review

2008 4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6

VERY roomy. I am a big guy (just over 6 feet and 300lbs) and I am very comfortable in this car. It has almost as much room up front as my 1966 Impala! see full Dodge Charger review
