2017 Kia Rio Seat Room and Comfort: Cons

2016 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 1.6L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
I did manage to get four people in the car but it was tight and the two in the back seat were not big adults (under 5'8"). We had to adjust the front passenger seat up a bit to make more room for the person behind. see full Kia Rio review
 

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2006 Mazda Mazda5

2006 Mazda Mazda5 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4
5-speed manual FWD
Rear seats fit adults or kids in car seats adequately, especially for an economy car. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Great, height adjustable driver seat, with good lumbar support. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Second row seats have lots of room, can slide fore and aft, and can recline. The passenger seats up in a chair-like posture, with great support for thighs. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Tons of rear seat room, and the second row seats can slide back/forth and recline. Third row is reserved for small children, however. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4
5-speed manual FWD
Can easily and comfortably seat six (6!) adults in a small package with storage space remaining. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4
5-speed manual FWD
The rear doors are the sliding type, which is the most practical (and brilliant) type of rear doors for children. I also like the fact that the middle seats recline and slide, they have storage under the cushions, and a third row of usable seating! see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Very practical and roomy for the size of car. see full Mazda Mazda5 review

six seats, what else can i say see full Mazda Mazda5 review

4-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Flexible layout. Individual captains chairs in the middle row provides ample space. 3rd row is best left for kids under pre teens, but a short trip would be ok for adults. 2nd and 3rd rows seats can be folded down flat individually. see full Mazda Mazda5 review

2007 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4
5-speed manual FWD
With the seat all back, there is not much room for anyone over six feet tall. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Tight fit once the front seats are slid back. Third row is useless if the second row is slid back. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
