TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Kia Soul

2012 Kia Soul Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	The seats are similarly sufficient for casual around-town driving but subpar for even moderate distances. Less than half way through our four-hour drive the hard, flat cushions grew uncomfortable. see full Kia Soul review

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Chevrolet Cruze

2014 Chevrolet Cruze Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	The Cruze's rear seat is among the tightest in a compact sedan, and the diesel engine doesn't affect this. Though rear seat headroom is abundant, adults will feel a bit cramped even behind a driver of average height. The Jetta's rear seat has a little less headroom but far more legroom. So the best option depends on whether your rear seat passengers have long legs or long torsos. see full Chevrolet Cruze review
