2010 Land Rover LR4 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||

2010 | 4dr SUV 375-horsepower 5.0L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range |
Drivers left leg can bang against some door hardware. This needs some minor re-think. Otherwise a nice elevated driving and upright position with tremendous forward visibility. Front pillar does not cause much of a blind spot. see full Land Rover LR4 review |

The back seat is not comfortable and has limited leg room. While the latter may be typical of some convertibles, leg room is less than on previous convertibles I have owned. see full Volkswagen Eos review |
