What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2007 Kia Rondo

2007 Kia Rondo Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2008 4dr Wagon 182-horsepower 2.7L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Tall large people can sit in the second row with more comfort as they can in the front seats of our Honda Civic or Sebring convertible. Third row is not bad for short trips for adults and children would be good for longer trips. see full Kia Rondo review
2007 4dr Wagon 182-horsepower 2.7L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
We have enough room for our two kids and the dog in addition to the cargo space for luggage or groceries. see full Kia Rondo review

It is difficult to find a comfortable driving position in the manual seat because the seat tilts forward as it lifts up. Lumbar support is poor an the steering wheel is too far away. see full Kia Rondo review
 

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Chevrolet Cruze

2012 Chevrolet Cruze Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2013 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 1.8L I4
6-speed manual FWD
Rear seat legroom is a bit tight with the front seats fully back. see full Chevrolet Cruze review
2012 4dr Sedan turbocharged 138hp 1.4L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Unfortunately there is no leg room in the rear of the car when the front seats are a particular distant from the dashboard. So either all the people when riding in this car need to be small people like no more then 5 foot?! or you can only have two 6 foot people in it at a time. needs serious improvements there! see full Chevrolet Cruze review
