2009 Kia Spectra Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2008 4dr Hatch 138-horsepower 2.0L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
Very comfortable for prolonged around-town driving, not bad for long trips. Could use adjustable lumbar support, but all other adjustments are very good. The non-sueded cloth is comfortable and durable. see full Kia Spectra review
