TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 Kia Soul

2013 Kia Soul Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearComment
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

2014 0 The front seat is every bit as uncomfortable as the previous model. No improvement here. A tall person will be more comfortable sitting in the rear seat. see full Kia Soul review
 

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 Nissan LEAF

2011 Nissan LEAF Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr Hatch 107-horsepower Electric
1-speed automatic FWD		 The front and rear seats are very comfortable. The back can be cramped with three passengers. The SL has heated front and rear seats which works great and are needed as the car heater is very slow to initially get warm. The heated steering wheel is also a nice touch. The seat fabric is soft but the light color might not wear well. see full Nissan LEAF review
